Different formats in switch function
Hi guys,
I have used a switch function to create the following table:
The switch function I have used is the next one:
PwrBI01 ,
Create a meaure with the below DAX:
MEASURE = IF(HASONEVALUE('T_M_Tabla indicadores económicos'[Medida]);SWITCH(VALUES('T_M_Tabla indicadores económicos'[Medida]);"Variación prev. año";FORMAT([Acumulado dos años previos],"#.### $");"% crecimiento";FORMAT([Acumulado var %],"Percent");"Importe medio";FORMAT([Switch importe medio],"## $");"% Var importe medio";FORMAT([Switch importe medio % var],"Percent");"Variación a fecha";FORMAT([Acumulado var],"#.### $")))
P.S. Just replace the $ sign with Pound sign while writing this dax as per your currency requirement.

Thank you very much Tahreem24,
I made some changes (for no decimals in percentages and for get the local format) and it works. The measure I finally used is the next one:
Switch prueba = IF(HASONEVALUE('T_M_Tabla indicadores económicos'[Medida]);SWITCH(VALUES('T_M_Tabla indicadores económicos'[Medida]);"Variación prev. año";FORMAT([Acumulado dos años previos];"#,### €");"% crecimiento";FORMAT([Acumulado var %];"#,### %");"Importe medio";FORMAT([Switch importe medio];"#,### €");"% Var importe medio";FORMAT([Switch importe medio % var];"#,### %");"Variación a fecha";FORMAT([Acumulado var];"#,### €")))Regards.
