Creating a dynamic summarized table or calculated table
Here is the link to the file: https://1drv.ms/u/s!Av_aAl3fXRbehap3IIpK9lEWhPkdwA
When you change the slicer-selections, the Table1 will change it's columns accordingly - after you've hit refresh!
When you apply it to your model, you might find that it doesn't work at the first go. Don't know why that is, but the solution is to close the file and re-open it. At least, this worked for me :-)
Edit: Changed link to the file: The measure that harvests the slicer-selection must be used in the report somewhere.
Hi Anonymous,
I have no idea if this is possible in DAX, as a slicer-selection returns a text which you would then have to pass "as a variable" to a DAX-expression.
This is possible in M (see the general concept here: http://www.thebiccountant.com/2017/03/22/use-slicers-for-query-parameters-in-powerbi/ ) but as GilbertQ already mentioned, that would mean that you have to hit the refresh manually after the slicer-selection has been changed. If that's OK for you & you need help in implementing it for your usecase, just let me know.
Cheers, Imke
