    It's a two step process. Check the article at sqlbi.com . Fields parameters in Power BI - SQLBI

     

    Unfortunately it is not (yet) possible to provide lists of columns instead of individual columns

Same methodology. Instead of permutations for two columns your SWITCH statement needs to handle permutations over three columns.

 

The measures field parameters are irrelevant as they don't contribute cardinality.

True, measures are irrelevant.
The thing is the different tables, not the number of columns.
So for example if I have columns from 4 different tables what would I write here?

COUNTROWS(SUMMARIZE(ALLSELECTED('ledger_fy22_qtr1'),[FISCAL_YEAR],[ACCOUNTING_PERIOD]))

    lbendlinthe problem is when columns from 2 or more different tables are selected in the Field Parameter.

    use the same query as the visual uses when you combine these columns from different tables. SUMMARIZECOLUMNS etc.
