Summary Row Not Contained in Data Source

  • Hi,

    Analysis Services newbie here.

    I have a Tabular Data Model which is being exposed via Excel and Power View.

    The data is financial data, looking something like this table.

    Type SubType Value

    Expenditure Electricity478

    Expenditure Salary 123

    Expenditure Tax 789

    Income Sales 896

    Income Royalties 112

    Profit is a derived value not a row in the source database or in the Tabular model. Profit is Income minus Expenditure.

    I have used calculated columns and measures to summarize data and calculations for the Profit value and all are mathematically correct when using filters and slicers etc . But I cannot expose the Profit value as shown in the table below. I want the user to be able to choose a field using Pivot Table or Power View and they can see not just Income and Expenditure but also Profit. Is there a way of achieving this?

    I'm happy to modify the model.

    Type Value

    Expenditure 478

    Income 896

    Profit 418

    Apologies if this is blindingly obvious but I've hit a brick wall.

    Thanks,

    Dave

  • Okay, I have modified the data structure in the data warehouse. there was no obvious solution in the model.
