DAX SUMMARIZECOLUMNS ROLLUPADDISSUBTOTAL with parameter for group by

Hi,

I have a parameter _Column1 in which I show possible fields from my Sales table.

 

Example

DEFINE

VAR _Column1 = TREATAS({@pColumn1}, 'SalesTable'[Columns])

 

VAR _ResultSet =
SUMMARIZECOLUMNS(
ROLLUPADDISSUBTOTAL(
ROLLUPGROUP('SalesTable'[Color] ), "ColumnTotal"),
'SalesTable'[Model]

 

EVALUATE _ResultSet

 

 

I would like to specify in paramter the field that would be then used in group by instead of 'SalesTable'[Color]. 
It could be any other field, I select in the parameter.

 

Example which is not working

DEFINE

VAR _Column1 = TREATAS({@pColumn1}, 'SalesTable'[Columns])

 

VAR _ResultSet =
SUMMARIZECOLUMNS(
ROLLUPADDISSUBTOTAL(
ROLLUPGROUP(_Column1 ), "ColumnTotal"),
'SalesTable'[Model]

 

EVALUATE _ResultSet

That would be a big improvement for Paginated reports.
Who can we ask, if this is going to be developed?
Thank you!

Not sure if Field Parameters are supported for Paginated Reports yet.
