Use Switch to rank the value but not exactly ?

Hi All,

I have data like below. I use the measure :

Rank Greenery ratio =
VAR _value = [Greenery ratio]
VAR _result =
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    _value >=0.3,5,
    _value >=0.25 || _value <0.3,4,
    _value >0.2 || _value <0.25,3,
    _value >0.1 || _value <0.2,2,
    1
)
Return _result

The result of 24% and 14% is not true . The rank of 24% is 3 and the rank of 14% is 2. Please help me to fix that measure

Hi  @Anonymous,

Please update the formula of measure [Rank Accessbility] as below and check if it can return your expected result... I remove the spaces from the conditions "Within 3km " and "Within 5km ".

Rank Accessbility =
VAR _value =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( Master[CBD_accessibility] )
VAR _result =
    SWITCH (
        TRUE (),
        _value = "Within 3km"5,
        _value = "Within 5km"4,
        _value = "Within 7km", 3,
        _value = "Within 10km", 2,
        _value = "More than 10km", 1
    )
RETURN
    _result

 

If the above one can't help you get the desired result, please provide some sample data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples. It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community. Thank you.

I think you meant to use and in the conditions rather than or

Rank Greenery ratio =
VAR _value = [Greenery ratio]
VAR _result =
    SWITCH (
        TRUE (),
        _value >= 0.3, 5,
        _value >= 0.25
            && _value < 0.3, 4,
        _value > 0.2
            && _value < 0.25, 3,
        _value > 0.1
            && _value < 0.2, 2,
        1
    )
RETURN
    _result

Hi John, thank you so much. I have a measure as : 

 

Rank Accessbility =
var _value = SELECTEDVALUE(Master[CBD_accessibility])
Var _result =
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    _value= "Within 3km ",5,
    _value ="Within 5km ",4,
    _value ="Within 7km",3,
    _value ="Within 10km",2,
    _value = "More than 10km",1
)
Return _result
 
But that measure is shown Within 10km , the other is not . I don't know why ? can you help me ?

temporarily change the measure to return _value to make sure that SELECTEDVALUE is returning a value correctly. its possible that there is more than 1 value in the filter context. if it is returning a value then make sure that it exactly matches the text you have in the measure, including the number of spaces.
