VALUES is not retuning correct result inside switch function.
I created a DAX in which I am use values of a slicer and based on that calcuations are happened. but the Values is not returning correct result.
PY_test =
IF(HASONEVALUE('Time Intelligence'[Period]),
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
VALUES('Time Intelligence'[Period]) = "W",CALCULATE([Value],'Prior Year'[Name] = "PY",'Time Intelligence'[Period] = "W"),
VALUES('Time Intelligence'[Period]) = "4W",CALCULATE([Value],'Prior Year'[Name] = "PY",'Time Intelligence'[Period] = "4W"),
VALUES('Time Intelligence'[Period]) = "12W",CALCULATE([Value],'Prior Year'[Name] = "PY",'Time Intelligence'[Period] = "12W"),
VALUES('Time Intelligence'[Period]) = "52W",CALCULATE([Value],'Prior Year'[Name] = "PY",'Time Intelligence'[Period] = "52W")
))
If I select "4W" from Slicer then I get blank result. Where as When I use VALUES('Time Intelligence'[Period]) in a different measure it returns correctly Whatever i selected in slicer.
Note:- We have data for All of these.
**In the above DAX neither "Values" nor "SelectedValues" give me result. 'Time Intelligence' is a calculation group.
Anyone can tell me how can I overcome this.

Hi Anonymous .
Use this DAX instead;PY_test =
var a=SELECTEDVALUE(Time Intelligence'[Period]),
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
a = "W",CALCULATE([Value],'Prior Year'[Name] = "PY",a = "W"),
a = "4W",CALCULATE([Value],'Prior Year'[Name] = "PY",a = "4W"),
a = "12W",CALCULATE([Value],'Prior Year'[Name] = "PY",a = "12W"),
a = "52W",CALCULATE([Value],'Prior Year'[Name] = "PY",a = "52W")
))
Let me know if that works.
