Values format change

Hi guys,

 

I have a matrix visual which based on the slicer selection shows percent or values. The issue is formating values should be whole number, precent should have % .

The data model has the column with all values, and  the column with type of value (percent, value, denominator).

Use dax to show values:

Employment =
CALCULATE(
[KPI Value],
FILTER(
'KPI [Dim]',
'KPI [Dim]'[KPI] = "Employment"
))

 

I have measures: KPI Value, KPI percent.

Is there way I can modify this formula so it can switch between precent and values and formating?

Many thanks!

If anyone have similar task, I've done it by using SWITCH and SELECTEDVALUE (based on slicer) then FORMAT (value).

@Anonymous , if you are using measure slicer and want the format has to change, you need to use calculation group

Thank you @amitchandak 

Unfortunately, due to company policies I don't have tabular editor or external tools in Pbi.
