Conditional calculation based on three slicers

I have a project where I need to sum up values from one of four column which is determined three slicers (Geo Hierarchy, Gross/Net, and Shrunk/Unshrunk).

I was able to get this to work, using an example I found online, for one of two columns and two slicers (see below) but I can't figure out how to make it work with as described above.

 

 

Variable GrossNet BOE = 
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    -------------- Entity --------------
    SELECTEDVALUE(P_HIERARCHY_LVL[Field]) = "Entity", 
    CALCULATE(
        IF(
            HASONEVALUE(P_GROSS_NET[Gross Net]),
            SWITCH(
                VALUES(P_GROSS_NET[Gross Net]),
                    "Gross", SUM(PRODUCTION_AREA_PERF[gross_sales_boe]),
                    "Net", SUM(PRODUCTION_AREA_PERF[net_sales_boe])
            ),
        SUM(PRODUCTION_AREA_PERF[gross_sales_boe])
        ),
        USERELATIONSHIP(P_HIERARCHY_LVL[Category], PROD_AREA_COUNTRY[country_cd])
    ),

    -------------------- Asset --------------
   SELECTEDVALUE(P_HIERARCHY_LVL[Field]) = "Asset", 
   CALCULATE(
        IF(
            HASONEVALUE(P_GROSS_NET[Gross Net]),
            SWITCH(
                VALUES(P_GROSS_NET[Gross Net]),
                    "Gross", SUM(PRODUCTION_AREA_PERF[gross_sales_boe]),
                    "Net", SUM(PRODUCTION_AREA_PERF[net_sales_boe])
            ),
        SUM(PRODUCTION_AREA_PERF[gross_sales_boe])
        ),
        USERELATIONSHIP(P_HIERARCHY_LVL[Category], PROD_AREA_ASSET[asset_name])
    ),

    -------------------- PA ----------------
    SELECTEDVALUE(P_HIERARCHY_LVL[Field]) = "Production Area/Platform", 
    CALCULATE(
        IF(
            HASONEVALUE(P_GROSS_NET[Gross Net]),
            SWITCH(
                VALUES(P_GROSS_NET[Gross Net]),
                    "Gross", SUM(PRODUCTION_AREA_PERF[gross_sales_boe]),
                    "Net", SUM(PRODUCTION_AREA_PERF[net_sales_boe])
            ),
        SUM(PRODUCTION_AREA_PERF[gross_sales_boe])
        ),
        USERELATIONSHIP(P_HIERARCHY_LVL[Category], PROD_AREA_PLATFORM[production_area_abbr])
    ),
    BLANK()
)

 

 

I'm pretty new at Dax.  I think what I have is close, I just need help figuring out how to do something like this within the IF statement of the above code:

 

 

SUM(
    IF(GrossNet = 'Gross' AND ShrunkUnshrunk = 'Shrunk', 'GrossShrunkBOE',
       IF(GrossNet = 'Gross' AND ShrunkUnshrunk = 'Unshrunk', 'GrossUnshrunkBOE',
          IF(GrossNet = 'Net' AND ShrunkUnshrunk = 'Shrunk', 'NetShrunkBOE',
             IF(GrossNet = 'Net' AND ShrunkUnshrunk = 'Unshrunk', 'NetUnshrunkBOE',0
                )
             )
          )
      )
   )

 

 

Any help I can get is greatly appreicated.

Hi @JJRubio ,

 

SUM(
    IF(GrossNet = 'Gross' AND ShrunkUnshrunk = 'Shrunk', 'GrossShrunkBOE',
       IF(GrossNet = 'Gross' AND ShrunkUnshrunk = 'Unshrunk', 'GrossUnshrunkBOE',
          IF(GrossNet = 'Net' AND ShrunkUnshrunk = 'Shrunk', 'NetShrunkBOE',
             IF(GrossNet = 'Net' AND ShrunkUnshrunk = 'Unshrunk', 'NetUnshrunkBOE',0
                )
             )
          )
      )
   )

Are 'GrossShrunkBOE'/'GrossUnshrunkBOE'/'NetShrunkBOE'/'NetUnshrunkBOE' in true result part of IF function measures which will return number type value? I see your measure will return 0 in last false result.

According to your code, I think there should be two slicers GrossNet and ShrunkUnshrunk in your data model.

Measure = 
VAR _SELECT_GrossNet = SELECTEDVALUE('Slicer1'[GrossNet])
VAR _SELECT_ShrunkUnshrunk = SELECTEDVALUE('Slicer2'[ShrunkUnshrunk])
RETURN
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
_SELECT_GrossNet = 'Gross' && _SELECT_ShrunkUnshrunk = 'Shrunk', [GrossShrunkBOE],
_SELECT_GrossNet = 'Gross' && _SELECT_ShrunkUnshrunk = 'Unshrunk', [GrossUnshrunkBOE],
_SELECT_GrossNet = 'Net' && _SELECT_ShrunkUnshrunk = 'Shrunk', [NetShrunkBOE],
_SELECT_GrossNet = 'Net' && _SELECT_ShrunkUnshrunk = 'Unshrunk', [NetUnshrunkBOE],
0
)

Do not sum the measure in one code unless you create a virtual table in your measure. Try sumx function to sum your measure.

SUM = SUMX('DataTable',[Measure])
