Power pivot - Dynamic Measure
I am tyring to create a dynamic measure based on a post on another website in power pivot. There are two elements:
-a table that creates dynamic choice of row values (i.e. parse out by insurance type or physician specialty or age of patient or patient status
-a measure that allows the user to pick from multiple measures
In the table, lets call it groups, there are 4 columns:
-group name(i.e insurance type or specialty
-goup value for each item in the broader group (i.e. Blue Cross or Medicare and Specialty Hand vs Foot )
-two or more columns with every permutation of the group values (i.e. Blue Cross Hands, Blue Cross Foot, Medicare Hands, Medicare Foot
The measure is as follows:
Measure Value5:=Switch(TRUE(),min(Multi[Msr Number])=1,CALCULATE(format([Current % Cases],"#,#0.0%;(#,#0.0%);-"),Groups),min(Multi[Msr Number])=2,CALCULATE(format([Avg Charges],"#,#0;(#,#0):-"),Groups),min(Multi[Msr Number])=3,CALCULATE(format([Cases],"#,#0;(#,#0;-"),Groups),min(Multi[Msr Number])=4,CALCULATE(format([Current % of Charges],"#,#0.0%;(#,#0.0%);-"),Groups),min(Multi[Msr Number])=5,CALCULATE(format([Expense % Reimbursement],"#,#0.0%;(#,#0.0%);-"),Groups))
The part that is giving me trouble are the Current % of Cases and the Current % of Charges for example Current % Cases:=divide([Cases],CALCULATE([Cases],ALLSELECTED(Data2)),0)
It returns 100% for each row, vs 6% for Foot and 94% Hands.
The dynamic measure works fine if I use a non dynamic row value.
I know this can be done in the Power BI desktop with parameters, but I tested this setup in the desktop and it did not work there either.
I have a boss that prefers Excel, but would rather just click on a slicer to change the measure or row value vs changing the row value in the pivot table
Any suggestions?

I've changed the data model relaying more on DAX. Please refer to attached sample file.= VAR FilterTable = FILTER ( Data, CONTAINS ( VALUES ( Groups[Group Values] ), Groups[Group Values], Data[FC] ) || CONTAINS ( VALUES ( Groups[Group Values] ), Groups[Group Values], Data[Specialty] ) ) RETURN SWITCH ( MIN ( Multi[MSR Number] ), 1, DIVIDE ( CALCULATE ( [Cases], FilterTable ), [Cases] ), 2, DIVIDE ( CALCULATE ( [Charges], FilterTable ), [Charges] ) )

There are relationships betwen the tables, but 1-3 are correct
There are intermediary tables between the Groups FinClass column and Data2 via an intermediary table and between the Groups Specialty column and the Data2 via another intermediary table
Hi BaldAccountant
My understanding:
1. 'Multi' is used to select between different measures.2. Group is used for slicing and dicing.
3. Data2 is the main table with all the data.
4. No relationships.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
My guess would be that ALLSELECTED ( Data2 ) is creating this issue. However, won't be able to provide a concerete solution without having the complete picture. Would you please share a screenshot of the Pivot Table blanking out any sensetive data but indicating which column in the pivot table belongs to which table?Here is a real basic example

Pct of Charges:=DIVIDE([Charges],CALCULATE([Charges],ALLSELECTED(Data)),0)
Measure Calc:=switch(TRUE(),min(Multi[MSR Number])=1,[Pct of Cases],min(Multi[MSR Number])=2,[Pct of Charges])
Relationships - I was wrong - measures does not have a relationship

Please try using ALL instead of ALLSELECTEDCases := DIVIDE ( [Cases], CALCULATE ( [Cases], ALL ( Data2 ) ), 0 )The SWITCH measure can be simplified (just less dax) as follows
MeasureValue5 := SWITCH ( MIN ( Multi[Msr Number] ), 1, CALCULATE ( FORMAT ( [Current % Cases], "#,#0.0%;(#,#0.0%);-" ), Groups ), 2, CALCULATE ( FORMAT ( [Avg Charges], "#,#0;(#,#0):-" ), Groups ), 3, CALCULATE ( FORMAT ( [Cases], "#,#0;(#,#0;-" ), Groups ), 4, CALCULATE ( FORMAT ( [Current % of Charges], "#,#0.0%;(#,#0.0%);-" ), Groups ), 5, CALCULATE ( FORMAT ( [Expense % Reimbursement], "#,#0.0%;(#,#0.0%);-" ), Groups ) )

You are amazing.
This is the first time I have posted a question here. It's the first time I could not solve something on my own and it felt like I was quitting, but I guess everyone needs a little help from time to time.
As a side note, my actual spreadsheet had more group options and more measures. Most of the group options were in seperate linked tables (Financial Class was the only one on the data table). I am not sure if this is the best way to do this, but I added these group options to the data table using the related function. if there is a better way to do this, please let me know.
You can use RELATED indide the FILTER function to filter the Dimension Tables likr this
VAR GroupValues =
VALUES ( Groups[Group Values] )
VAR FilterTable =
FILTER (
Data,
CONTAINS ( GroupValues, Groups[Group Values], Data[FC] )
|| CONTAINS ( GroupValues, Groups[Group Values], Data[Specialty] )
|| CONTAINS ( GroupValues, Groups[Group Values], RELATED ( DimTable[Column] ) )
)
