    'Product'[Category],
    "Total Sales", CALCULATE(SUM('Sales'[Amount]))
)

Answer

DAX Code Translation:

The provided code snippet in the original language needs to be translated into DAX. Below is the equivalent DAX code that preserves the original logic and behavior.

SUMMARIZE(
    'Product',
    'Product'[Category],
    "Total Sales", CALCULATE(SUM('Sales'[Amount]))
)

Code Explanation:

  • The SUMMARIZE function in DAX is used as an equivalent to the SUMMARIZECOLUMNS function in the original code.
  • Within the SUMMARIZE function:
    • 'Product' is the table reference over which we are summarizing the data.
    • 'Product'[Category] specifies the column from the 'Product' table that we want to group by.
    • "Total Sales" is an alias for the calculated column that will hold the total sales value.
    • CALCULATE(SUM('Sales'[Amount])) calculates the sum of 'Amount' column from the 'Sales' table within the context defined by the grouping operation.

By following this translation, the functionality and behavior of the original code snippet are maintained in the DAX code.
