Return Graph

Good morning,

I have a question, In my table I get a column with years in it (a year can occures plenty of times) and 10 measures which are associated to this column, (M1,....M10).

I would like to have a graph with my 10 measure in my x axis and the value of my measure by year as my values. I join a draw to show you what I expect.

But when I try to do it it gives me this and I don't achieve to modify it:

 

  • Hi Anonymous ,

     

    If you are using measures on your values you are not abble to get the result you need simply with the use of this measures and the year column.

     

    Create a new table with all your measure names and and ID column something similar to:

    ID MeasureName
    1 Measure1
    2 Measure2
    ... ...
    10 Measure10

     

    Now create the following measure:

    Selection =
    SWITCH (
        SELECTEDVALUE ( Table[MeasureName] ),
        1, [Measure1],
        2, [Measure2],
        ..., ...
        10, [Measure10]
    )

     

    Now make your line chart with the following setup:

    • Axis: MeasureName (Column)
    • Legend: Year (Column)
    • Values: Selection (Measure)

    Should return expected values

      MFelix Thank you, I tried it but I can't put Year in the legend because is not in the same table so they ask me to manage the relashionship between the two tables. And I can't do it because it's doesn't exist any.

      Have you have some idea?

      Thank you

        Can you share a sample of your data model, and how the measures are calculated?
