KPI sum problem

[edemerdjieva]

Hello all,

I have a chart displaying marketing action performance based on two KPI : total of sales and total of discounts.

The Fact table has the following fields:

Store ID	Receipt ID	Item ID	Sales Gross Amount	Sales Net Amount	Discount	Action ID
1	A	111	13.90	8.90	-	-
1	A	201	10.90	8.20	-	-
1	A	201	10.90	8.20	-	-
1	A	151	8.00	6.00	-	-
1	A	111	-	-	5.00	XY
1	A	201	-	-	2.70	XY
1	A	201	-	-	2.70	XY
1	A	151	-	-	2.00	XY

The resulting chart has to be like this:

Action ID	Total Sales	Total Discount
XY	31.30	12.40

The problem is with the Total Sales Net Amount, defined as follows:

=Sum(Aggr(Sum(TOTAL <[Receipt ID]> [Sales Net Amount]),[Action Id], [Receipt ID]))

it takes into account distinct items. So in the example above the result is : 23.10 which is not correct. The good value should be 31.30.

Any idea how to write the expression?

Hi,

try with this:

=sum(aggr(sum([Sales Net Amount]),[Marketing Action ID],[Receipt ID]))

or with this:

=sum(total <[Receipt ID],[Marketing Action ID]> [Sales Net Amount])

Hi Youssef,

None of these work. I added some details in the description to help the understanding of the underlying structure.

Any idea ?

Try putting NODISTINCT in aggr() like:

=Sum(Aggr(NODISTINCT Sum(TOTAL <[Receipt ID]> [Sales Net Amount]),[Action Id], [Receipt ID]))

Did you change the values of the table above ?

Hi,

Based on the data you provided, I would probably try to separate the discounts into a new table and link them to sales by store id, receipt id and item id (use autonumber or any other method to create composite key). This way each action id should link properly to the sales rows.

Then you should be able to get rid the aggr-expression and just use a normal sum. Seems much easier.

Hi Teemu,

I cannot change the data model, unfortunately. I tried the NODISTINCT qualifier but there is no effect on the Total Sales.

Create a chart With

Calculated Diemsion as    =PIck(WildMatch([Action ID],'XY','*-*'),'XY','XY')

Expression 1.  Sum([Sales Net Amount])

                  2.    Sum(Discount)

Hi,

What if there are multiple different actions? I'm assuming it's possible.
