conditional all()??

[yasbos]

Hi. I have a calculate function. I need to decide on the fly whether it uses all() (based on user input in a checkbox) as one of its arguments. Is this at all possible? Calculate( something, if(checkbox is true, all(dates), do nothing) )

Hi @yasbos ,

Maybe you can try formula like below:

ConditionalTotalSales = 
IF(
    [SelectedOption] = "Include All",
    CALCULATE(
        [TotalSales],
        ALL('Calendar')
    ),
    CALCULATE(
        [TotalSales]
    )
)

SelectedOption = SELECTEDVALUE(Checkbox[Option], "Exclude All")

TotalSales = SUM(Sales[Sales])

Also, thank you again so much for taking the time and putting the efforts into this, @Anonymous . That's awesome!

Thanks so much @Anonymous . I forgot to mention that I did know this solution, but I was hoping for a more localized decision because the calculate function that I have is much larger than just one line. I was hoping to modularize the code. Thanks so much for your help, nonetheless.

if(checkbox is true, Calculate( something, all(dates)))

You get the "do nothing"  for free if you omit the "else" parameter.
