Question 290
A calculated table must summarize Sales by Region and Year and return aggregate measures. Which DAX concept fits?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Use a suitable SUMMARIZECOLUMNS table expression with group-by columns and measures. SUMMARIZECOLUMNS constructs grouped result tables under the specified context.
Incorrect Answers
KEEPFILTERS intersects the added filter with existing Date context. Its application is “extra minimum Date criterion without replacing same-column selections”, not the need “by Region and Year and return aggregate measures”.
Column-scoped removal preserves other Product attributes in context. That is a different operating condition from “by Region and Year and return aggregate measures”: “Product filters except remove the Manufacturer field filter”.
Use DATESBETWEEN on the Date column with explicit bounds. It serves “explicit table of dates between StartDate and EndDate”, not “by Region and Year and return aggregate measures”.
