Slicer DAX

matrix_user — Tue, 05 Apr 2022 03:34:59 GMT

1) I am trying to get all my options in the slicer to show values. Currently, I can only see values in the cluster column visual for “Y”:

2) If I click to “W” or “Q” or “M” no values show up in the chart:

3) I have looked at the DAX for the measure “QTY Total” that is used for the chart:

4) In my journey to find a solution, I changed the last portion of the DAX by replacing ‘Calendar’[Year] with [Month]:

5) With the change, the values for “Y” and "M" appears in the clustered columns visual - but nothing for “Q” or “W"

6) How can I modify the DAX to include "Y", "M", "Q" and "W"?

Any help would be appreciated:

Hi Amitcanddax,

Nice to know other ways of building dynamic slicers but at this stage DAX is the way to go The DAX shown in the video is leaving me worse that the one I am trying to fix. Cheers

Hi matrix_user
This is one of the simplest and greatest ideas I've ever seen and I really thank you for for posting this.
A small fix and all good to go https://www.dropbox.com/t/vxCj7mCtgVRteRcN

QTY Total : = SWITCH ( SELECTEDVALUE ( Slicer[Index Desc], 1 ), 1, CALCULATE ( SUM ( ScooterSales[Sold Cash] ), TREATAS ( VALUES ( Slicer[Period] ), 'Calendar'[Year] ) ), 153, CALCULATE ( SUM ( ScooterSales[Sold Cash] ), TREATAS ( VALUES ( Slicer[Period] ), 'Calendar'[YearQuarter] ) ), 165, CALCULATE ( SUM ( ScooterSales[Sold Cash] ), TREATAS ( VALUES ( Slicer[Period] ), 'Calendar'[Month] ) ), 5, CALCULATE ( SUM ( ScooterSales[Sold Cash] ), TREATAS ( VALUES ( Slicer[Period] ), 'Calendar'[Year&WeekNumber(a)] ) ), CALCULATE ( SUM ( ScooterSales[Sold Cash] ), TREATAS ( VALUES ( Slicer[Period] ), 'Calendar'[Year] ) ) )
