Checking for Multiple variables in a list

Hi everyone,

 

I am trying to use DAX to check for multiple variables in a list. For example:

 

I have a drop down list with "Banana", "Apple", "Orange", "Kiwi", "Pear" as selectable options which control a chart. I can currently extract individual selections with a variable SelectedValue(Fruits[Names]). 

 

However, when I select Banana and Apple, I want to have a variable that picks this up (like, prints selected value "BananaApple" or something. I am not sure what function I should use for this. 

 

Thanks!

Try something like:

 

Measure = CONCATENATEX(VALUES(Fruits[Names]),",")

Try this.
We also have same requirement.
 
List of Purchasers = IF(ISFILTERED('Sub Group'[Purchaser Name]),CONCATENATEX(ALLSELECTED('Sub Group'[Purchaser Name]),'Sub Group'[Purchaser Name],",",'Sub Group'[PURCHASER NAME],ASC),"All Purchasers")
 
Replace columns and tables with your columns and tables.
 
Thanks & regards,
