Need Help with IF Statement in a Measure
Anonymous Yes you can multiple nest if statement
if ( your condition, True value, if( your condition, true value, if ( your condition, true value, false value ) ) )
Super UserAnonymous here is sample measure, this is just to give you an example how you can change the value based on selected value, you can change it to meet you need
My Total = VAR __selectedFiscalYear = SELECTEDVALUE( Data[FiscalYear] ) RETURN IF( __selectedFiscalYear = 2018, SUM( FY2018[Amount] ), IF( __selectedFiscalYear = 2019, SUM( FY2019[Amount ) )
parry2k Thank you so much for your reply! I had to modify the syntax of the formula to make it work to IF( __selectedFiscalYear = 2018, SUM( FY2018[Amount], SUM( FY2019[Amount] ). So yes, it solved my origianl problem. However, now I have to make it more complex: IF a, THEN x, ELSEIF b, THEN y, ELSE z
Is there an easy what to do that? Thank you!

Thank you very much! It worked.
You could also use switch to evaluate your conditionas, is like having multiple ifs....
SWITCH(<expression>, <value>, <result>[, <value>, <result>]…[, <else>])
