Hello everyone,
In a project i would like to use different mesure in a single one but i have some difficulties to do it.
For exemple in my dataset i have 4 mesure CA and UC in decimal and DN and DV in percentage. I created a new table KPI list with my KPI name and a column order.
I would like to calculate a new mesure KPI selected :
The point is to have a segment KPI list and when i select CA or UC my bar chart use the KPI selected and he is in decimal and when i select DN or DV the barchart is now in percentage.
Is this possible ?
Thank you

Hi @Anonymous ,
Thanks @bhanu_gautam for the quick reply and solution. You can place the measure provided by @bhanu_gautam on the data label of the column chart.
Or we can create dynamic format strings for measure.
Create dynamic format strings for measures in Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
KPI selected =
VAR SelectedKPI = SELECTEDVALUE('KPI list'[Order])
RETURN
SWITCH(
SelectedKPI,
1,[CA],
2,[UC],
3,[DN],
4,[DV]
)
SWITCH(SELECTEDVALUE('KPI list'[Order]),
1,"0.00",
2,"0.00",
3,"0.00%",
4,"0.00%")

@Anonymous , Try using below measure
KPI selected formatted =
VAR SelectedKPI = SELECTEDVALUE('KPI list'[Order])
RETURN
SWITCH(
SelectedKPI,
1, FORMAT([CA], "0.00"),
2, FORMAT([UC], "0.00"),
3, FORMAT([DN], "0.00%"),
4, FORMAT([DV], "0.00%")
)

Hello, i have already tried to do this and it works in table and matrix but when it's in graph i can't use it because power bi think the mesure is a format text
