Add filter value into the report header

Hi, I'm trying to use the date filter in to report the report header, for example I have created a report on the fiscal year 2013-2014 but once I change the fiscal year to 2-14-2015 it should refres...

    mroomi Try this another approach. Download custom visual called Long Text Viewer from here. Drop same field in this visual as your report filter. Format it so that it looks like your report header. Then whenever a value is selected in your filter visual will also be filtered.

    mroomi, Example below  

     

    Measure Defined a below:

     

    Filtered Year = IF ( ISFILTERED(vw_Name[PSPStatus]), CONCATENATE("Document Count for the Fiscal Year ", (IF(HASONEVALUE(vw_Name[PSPStatus]), FIRSTNONBLANK(vw_Name[PSPStatus],"") ,""))), "Report Page is not Filtered by FY")

     

    Table Data:

    Table DataNo Values in Filter

     

    Noticed that Long Text Visual is unable to take Measure as an input ...

     

    Hope this helps!

mroomi Create a DAX text measure using  HASONEVALUE & FIRSTNONBLANK & optionally [ISFILTERED or HASONEFILTER] and use this. 

 

For  example, please see Will Thompson's Create Impactful Reports With Power BI Desktop  MSDataSummit Video around  28:30 minute mark..

Thanks,

I tried to create a simple one but I get the following error

 

Title = if (HASONEVALUE(vw_Name[PSPStatus]),vw_Name[PSPStatus])

 

Error = "A single value for column 'PSPStatus' in table 'vw_Name' cannot be determined. This can happen when a measure formula refers to a column that contains many values without specifying an aggregation such as min, max, count, or sum to get a single result."

 

Actually what I'm trying to do is to when ever the user changes the value of the filter it reflects in the report headrer.
