Dynamic column Value

[JofrainVisda]

I have this column in powerbi, a concatenation of my FY column which is the fiscal year that consists FY24 and FY25, and Period column which consists of P1 to P12. I also created a Period Number Column that extracts the numbers in the Period Column.  So if the period is P12, the period number column on that row is 12.

I want to add another column that indicates Yes or No based on the selected value on the Period slicer in the dashboard. Please someone save me. 

Example: If I have selected P5 in the slicer, then FY25 - P5 down to FY25 - P1 rows will have "Yes" value in that new column.

This is what I've tried and did not work.

Created a measure:

Selected Period =

VAR SelectedVal = SELECTEDVALUE(vw_Tableau2[Period])

return

IF(SelectedVal = "P1",1,

IF(SelectedVal = "P2",2,

IF(SelectedVal = "P3",3,

IF(SelectedVal = "P4",4,

IF(SelectedVal = "P5",5,

IF(SelectedVal = "P6",6,

IF(SelectedVal = "P7",7,

IF(SelectedVal = "P8",8,

IF(SelectedVal = "P9",9,

IF(SelectedVal = "P10",10,

IF(SelectedVal = "P11",11,

IF(SelectedVal = "P12",12))))))))))))

Created a column:

Period Checker =

IF(vw_Tableau2[Current FY?] = BLANK(),"Yes",

    IF([Selected Period] = 1, "Yes",

    IF([Selected Period] = 2,

        IF(vw_Tableau2[Period Number] <= 2,"Yes"),

    IF([Selected Period] = 3,

        IF(vw_Tableau2[Period Number] <= 3,"Yes"),

    IF([Selected Period] = 4,

        IF(vw_Tableau2[Period Number] <= 4,"Yes"),

    IF([Selected Period] = 5,

        IF(vw_Tableau2[Period Number] <= 5,"Yes"),

    IF([Selected Period] = 6,

        IF(vw_Tableau2[Period Number] <= 6,"Yes"),

    IF([Selected Period] = 7,

        IF(vw_Tableau2[Period Number] <= 7,"Yes"),

    IF([Selected Period] = 8,

        IF(vw_Tableau2[Period Number] <= 8,"Yes"),

    IF([Selected Period] = 9,

        IF(vw_Tableau2[Period Number] <= 9,"Yes"),

    IF([Selected Period] = 10,

        IF(vw_Tableau2[Period Number] <= 10,"Yes"),

    IF([Selected Period] = 11,

        IF(vw_Tableau2[Period Number] <= 11,"Yes"),

    IF([Selected Period] = 12,

        IF(vw_Tableau2[Period Number] <= 12,"Yes","No"))))))))))))))

Returning result: 
regardless of the selected period, the column returns YES to all rows. Seems the the measure is not dynamically working in a calculated column

Hi @JofrainVisda 

That won't work because calculated columns and tables do not respond to slicer selections. While they can influence what is displayed in the report view, they do not dynamically change within the model. In a calculated column, SELECTEDVALUE will either return blank or the alternate result. To achieve dynamic values that respond to slicer selections, measures must be used within visuals. Additionally, a separate column in the fact Continuous Period table is needed to store the period as a number, along with a disconnected table whose column will be used in a slicer to ensure all periods remain visible. Using a column from a related table restricts the visible rows to only those selected.

Please see the attached sample pbix.

Calculated columns and tables are generate on semantic model refresh. Slicer selection will have no effect, on these

Hi @JofrainVisda 

Can you please try the below DAX.

output =
VAR SelectedPeriod = MAX('Table'[Period Number]) 
RETURN
IF(
MAX('Table'[Period Number]) <= SelectedPeriod,
"Yes",
"No"
)
