Calculate Variation dynamically

Hi.  I need some help. So, imagine this. The first value is the Moving Annual Total from MAT1. The value below is the variation vs homologous period (MAT 2 in this case).   The way I did ...

    Hi, GoncaloCare 

     

    If I understand what you mean, Do you want the value of Query3[MAT] to be dynamic?

    You can try to create a single distinct list(distict(Query3[MAT])), then use this new table column as slicer. And use selectedvalue function to distinguish different values in two different tables.

     

    -> for the first value: 

Mat1valor = CALCULATE(SUM(Query3[EUR]), Query3[MAT]=selectedvalue(Query3[MAT]))
-> for the second value: 

VariacaoMAT1 = ( ( [Mat1valor] / CALCULATE(SUM(Query3[EUR]),selectedvalue(table[MAT]) ) - 1 ))

     

    If it doesn’t solve your problem, please share some sample fake data and your desired result,then feel free to ask me.

     

    Best Regards

I do understand you can select the entry for the first measure. But to be able to select an entry for the second measure... you have to have another table. So, in a word, one table for the selection of the first measure, a second independent table for the selection for the other measure. This is how you do it.

 

Alternatively, you could have one table with combinations like ("Mat1", "Mat2") where a selection will immediately fix the entry for the first measure and the second.

 

It's up to you how you want to do it.

Hi. So, I have the table for the second option. 

If I select this option on the filters:

 

How can I check on the measure which value is selected, and on the variation, get the MAT2 using the new table with the combinations?
