Hi there! I want to create a "decision support tool" in Power BI that helps users decide on which labor type (e.g. Contingent Worker, Full-Time Employee, or Statement of Work) they should employ for a project. I've setup a table in PBI that I'm calling "QuestionFlow" (see below). As you can see, based on the users Yes/No answers to the various questions I either want another question to display or a specific text value to display for the user. I've created another table called "UserResponse" which simply has values of "Yes" and "No" and then I created a slicer from that. At this point I'm stuck on the DAX to write (I'm a rookie) in order to dynamically display the series of questions/text based on the user's responses. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!
QuestionID | QuestionText | YesNextQuestionID | NoNextQuestionID |
Q1 | Is there a specific project that needs completion? | Q2 | Q3 |
Q2 | Will this specific project have a defined scope of work that limits what will be performed? | Q4 | Q5 |

Q7 | Will there be penalties associated with delayed deliverables or poor quality? | Q11 | Contingent Worker |
Q8 | Does your labor need for the role experience fluctuations in service demands? | Q10B | Contingent Worker |
Q9A | Will the client invest in worker training & development? | Full Time Employee | Contingent Worker |
Q9B | Will the client invest in worker training & development? | Full Time Employee | Contingent Worker |
Q9C | Will the client invest in worker training & development? | Full Time Employee | Contingent Worker |
Q10A | Does the role require ongoing expertise or project-specific skills? | Contingent Worker | Contingent Worker |

Hi @Bali2022 ,
Below is my table:
The following DAX might work for you:
NextQuestion =
IF (
SELECTEDVALUE('UserResponse'[Column1]) = "Yes",
LOOKUPVALUE('Table'[YesNextQuestionID], 'Table'[QuestionID], SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[QuestionID])),
LOOKUPVALUE('Table'[NoNextQuestionID], 'Table'[QuestionID], SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[QuestionID]))
)
The final output is shown in the following figure:
