    I am prepping for the DA 100 exam and both classes I have taken have not given very good explanations of the CALCULATE function. They expect you to understand it from what they give you. This is by far THE BEST explanation of it! Now I get it and will be searching out more of your videos on it! THANK YOU!!

    Your explanation is appreciated.

    "so CALCULATE function creates an invisible Pivot Table to perform a caculation and returns the results in the Pivot Table where the CALCULATE function originated from."
    Thanks, this explanation worked for me!👍

    Leila I've started to learn Power BI and using some DAX expressions and I could not understand very well how this function really works, but your explanation on CALCULATE function is perfect! Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!

    This was exactly what I needed for some data analysis at work - comparing several sites' time-based performance that was a percentage for each, along with the overall organization on the same pivot-chart. I left work stumped on how to do this and happened to see this video in my feed when I got home - BANG, epiphany!!! This video nailed what I was looking for, and I didn't need any other resources to get the analysis done. Perfect presentation and perfect timing for me. Thank you so much for all that you do! I wish I could give you a hug!

    Very, very nice ! An average difficult concept was explained with simple words, and visual aids. This is a very good foundation, anyone can start building more and more nested functions, within CALCULATE. You did it in the right way, starting from basics. There are many experts our there, knowing very well many DAX things, but just few of them are able to explain and make other people understand. You are one of them, dear Leila. I also love this short inserts with Stewie Griffin, really funny ! :-D.

  • @borisgrushin868
    @borisgrushin868 3 года назад

    Didn't understand why you'd use this function vs just pivot until I saw the filtered data next to unfiltered data and then yes, mind blown. Used to have to do several pivots and do lookups to get that. Thanks!

    • @Afrikan221

    great explanation of the Filter Context (local pivot filters overriding the CALCULATE filter (which in Power BI with no filter tables, the slicers override the Calculate function).
    and wonderful demo of whats really happening under the hood of CALCULATES intrinsic filters. I did an excel/powerPivot/Dax course it was good, but I will sign up for yours as well having experienced how well you articulate and video. Will be fun to learn more with insightful perspectives.
