Change data format based on metric selection

Hi,

 

I have a report where i select different metrics based on a button selection(bookmarks). My stacked column chart displays in thousands based on selection however how can i change data format to percentage when Trade Rate metric is selected.

Hi @dokat 

With a bookmark, you can display a different visualization each time, so you can design and format each one according to your preferences.

It would be helpful if you could attach a sample file if I didn't understand correctly.

@Ritaf1983 I found a workaround using slicers rather than button. Thanks

@Ritaf1983 Thanks for your response but that didnt work. I tried below measure it didnt give any error message however returned blank values, When 'ID'[ID]= 1,2,3,4, I'd like values in stacked column chart to display in $0.00 K" format. If 'ID'[ID]=9 in % format "0.0%".  Below you will find the screen shot of the results. Not sure what the work around is.

 

Output Selected Calculation = 
SWITCH(
  SELECTEDVALUE('ID'[ID])
   ,1,FORMAT(CALCULATE([Output Gross Sales]),"$#,##0")
   ,2,FORMAT(CALCULATE([Output OIS]),"$#,##0")
   ,3,FORMAT(CALCULATE([Output NS]),"$#,##0")
   ,4,FORMAT(CALCULATE([Output Trade Spend]),"$#,##0")
   ,5,CALCULATE([Output Volume])
   ,6,CALCULATE([Output Packages])
   ,7,CALCULATE([Output ASP])
   ,8,CALCULATE([Output ANSP])
   ,9,FORMAT(CALCULATE([Output Trade Rate]),"0.0%")
)
