Dynamic value based on selection

Hi, 

 

I want to create a Calculated Column where the value is 0 or 1 depending on where the value on Column 1 exists on Table2.Column1 only for the selected Customer.

 

For example: Customer A has value E and Customer B has value F on Table2, so if Customer A is selected on slicer, the calculated column should show  1 next to value E and 0 next to value F. 

 

Thanks 

 

A.

Try to create a table crossing all information:

 

CrossTable = CROSSJOIN( DISTINCT(Table2[Customer]) ; DISTINCT(Table2[Value]) )

And Then, in the "CrossTable" you create a column with the Flag "0 or 1" comparing with the table2

 

Flag = IF(
ISBLANK(LOOKUPVALUE( Table2[Value];Table2[Customer];CrossTable[Customer];Table2[Value];CrossTable[Value]))
;0
;1)

Hi, thanks for your quick answer. The issue I find is that the cross join is not dynamic, so I'm stuck with the same result for every customer I select. Maybe I didn't do it correctly as I'm new to Power Bi.

 

Again, thanks

 

Regards

Create a measure:

 

Count = IF(COUNTROWS(Table1)=0;0;COUNTROWS(Table1))

 

In a table visual:

Select Column Customer from Table 2 and the measure.

The slicer is filled with Customer from Table Customer

Hi, thanks for the answer. This works for me on one table but not on the other.

Any clue?

 

Thanks
