Hi LearnPowerBIAS 

can you be more specific about the switch statement. Is it applied to a calculated column or measure? Which column/table is involved in this formula? Whi column/table is used in the slicer? How does the report look like?

I created a calculated coulmn using this formula Names = SWITCH(Table[Names], 1, "AA", 2,"BB", 3, "CC", 4, "DD", 5, "EE")

    Hi LearnPowerBIAS,

     

    Here is the correct version of this SWITCH statement...😎

    Names = SWITCH(
TRUE(),
Table[Names] = 1, "AA",
Table[Names] = 2, "BB",
Table[Names] = 3, "CC",
Table[Names] = 4, "DD",
Table[Names] = 5, "EE"
)

     

    I am only ammending the DAX I don't know the specifics of your problem, could you give an example table and then the result you'd expect? Or does this solve your problem or give you a better clue on how to solve it? 😊
