DAX expression for a numeric range slicer

linlab — Mon, 29 Mar 2021 08:23:18 GMT

Hello,

I've selected the column month to work as a numeric range slicer. Is there any DAX expression to get the 2 values introduced in the slicer? I've tried MIN and MAX with SELECTEDVALUE but is not working. Or I've to use the slicer with parameters instead of the column? Thanks for your help.

linlab , You can use MinX/MaxX

measure =
var _max = maxx(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Month])
var _min = minx(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Month])
return
calculate(countrows(Table), filter(Date, Date[Month] >=Min && 'Date'[Month] <=Max ))

Hi amitchandak

I've tested your solution but it returns the max and min value in the table instead of the values introduced in the slicer. In this example, the month max value in the table is 9 but the value introduced in the slicer is 12 so the measure should return 12. Have you another idea?

It's very simple actually.

[The Max] = max( T[month] ) [The Min] = min( T[month] )

where T is the table the 'month' field in the slicer lives in.

Hi Anonymous ,

As you can see in my previous message to amitchandak, this expression also gives the max value in the table, not the value introduced in the slicer.
