Convert measure as slicer and filter

Hi all, 

 

I have a measure that is showing the correct values, and that measure needs to be a filter/slicer. But when I try to create a calculated column with the logic that I have in that measure, it is not working properly: 

I've these measures:
1- gpal logic measure=
VAR gpal_lp = [Gpal LP_]
VAR gpal_cp = [GPAL_]
VAR logicgpal =
IF (
gpal_lp = 0,
IF ( gpal_cp = 0, 0, 1 ),
IF (
gpal_lp < 0,
( -1 * ( gpal_cp - gpal_lp ) / gpal_lp ),
( gpal_cp - gpal_lp ) / gpal_lp
)
)
RETURN
logicgpal

2- gpal filter measure

IF([gpal logic measure]<= -0.5,"< -50%",

IF([gpal logic measure]<= -0.25, "-50% - -25%",

IF([gpal logic measure]< 0, "-25% - 0%",

IF([gpal logic measure]= 0, "0%",

IF([gpal logic measure] < -0.25,"0% - 25%",

IF([gpal logic measure]<0.50,"25% - 50%", "> 50%")

)))))


And when I try to aggregate both measures and create a 3 - calculated colum (gpal column filter wrong) to use as filter, it is not working well:

Is there any workaround for this?

Kind regards.

@Anonymous , for this you need to do dynamic segmentation or binning.

 

Please refer to my video if that can help

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Are you want to convert the measure to calculated column so that you could use the column as silcer to filter the records has different percentages?

I must say you are using multiple IF() function in the measure that makes it's hard to understand the logic about the measure.
You may try SWITCH() function instead.

Please show some sample data and the calculate logic to us so that we could help you deal with the formula.

 

Best Regards,

Jay
