I have to create a column in a table, whose value will be selected values from what if parameter

I have a Table1 and in that I need to create a custom column, whose value will be selected value from the 'what if' paramter

 

I tried to create a Parameter Value column, by using the dax 

Parameter Value = SELECTEDVALUE(Parameter[Parameter])
 
But I am getting blank in that column. Can anyone please help me in resolving this issue.
 

 

 

Thanks in advance

    You cannot do this. The idea of a calculated column is that it's real data, and that means it doesn't respond directly to user input. 

    SELECTEDVALUE returns the parameter value only if one value is selected, but in a calculated column it sees all values, so it's only logical that you get blank values.

    Instead, you should write a measure that does what you need.

      As per business requirements we want it in a column. Is there any way to do it or it is not at all possible?
