Filtering a SWITCH Measure within EVALUATE

Hi All, 

 

I have switch measure which I would like to run a trace on within DAX Studio. It is a typical switch measure which uses a filter from an unrelated lookup table - MeasuresTable. 

 

How do I apply a filter to an evaluate statement when the measures table is a unrelated table? Currently it is returning a table of multiple values rather than a single value (as you would expect).

 

Currently the EVALUATE statement looks something like this:

 

EVALUATE
    SUMMARIZE(
    'FactTable',
    'dimDate'[Month],
    "Value", [SwitchMeasure1],
)

 

 

FILTER(MeasureTable, 'MeasureTable'[MeasureName] = "The Measure I Want") <--- Where do I put this!

@Anonymous,

Could you please share sample data of your tables and post expected result here?

You can add CALCULATE() function to return filtered data inside the SUMMARIZED function following the instructions in the blog below.

However, if you want to return single value instead of table, you may need to create measure or calculated column instead of summarized table.
