undefinedDynamic Threshold Setting for Pareto Analysis Using Parameters

I am creating a Pareto chart in Power BI. I have created a new column using the following DAX expressions:

 

Pareto = 
VAR ranking = RANKX('Sheet1','Sheet1'[Sales by Product])
VAR runningsum = SUMX(TOPN(ranking,'Sheet1','Sheet1'[Sales by Product],DESC),'Sheet1'[Sales by Product])
VAR total = CALCULATE(SUM('Sheet1'[Sales by Product]),ALL('Sheet1'))
RETURN DIVIDE(runningsum,total)

ABC Rank =
IF('Sheet1'[Pareto] <= 0.8,"A",
IF('Sheet1'[Pareto] <= 0.9,"B","C"))

 

Next, I want to adjust the thresholds for ABC Rank using parameters so that they can be dynamically adjusted.

However, I am having trouble getting this to work properly using the new parameter feature in the Modeling tab.

How can I achieve this?
