Hello,
I would like to set up a seperate dropdown to where I can select either Dark Mode or Live Mode. We have several catergories that fall under Dark Mode and the same categories that fall under Live Mode. I already have a drop down labeled Queue Name. I would like a seperate drop down that shows only Dark and Live mode.
Example queue:
Classification - Offsite (Dark Mode)
Classification - Text
Classification - Title
Classification - Title (Dark Mode)
Seperate slicer i would like
Dark Mode
LP or Live
Solved! Go to Solution.
I'm unable to put the whole file on here for security purposes however the column labeled queue name is the column I am trying to pull live mode and dark mode. There is nothing to differeintiate live mode other than it being blank. I also updated my formula per your findings but still came out blank. thanks again
I was able to resolve the issue. Thank you for all your help.
CustomColumn = IF(
ISERROR(
SEARCH("A", TableName[ColumnName])
),
"A",
"B"
)
Create 2 calculated column
Darkmode = IF(Table1[Mode]="Dark",Table1[Calssification_Type])
Livemode = IF(Table1[Mode]="Live",Table1[Calssification_Type]).
This will list the categories in each mode.Then apply slicer on these 2 columns.Hope this is what you are looking for.
Thanks
Raj
Raj,
Thank you for your response. When looking at the columns using the Data tab, Im only see blank fields for both created columns of Darkmode and Livemode . Here's what i typed in. I shortened the name of my tables.
Livemode = IF(table_P_CLASSIFICATION[queue_name]="Live Mode",table_P_CLASSIFICATION[queue_name])
Darkmode = IF(table_P_CLASSIFICATION[queue_id]="Dark Mode",table_P_CLASSIFICATION[queue_name])
My apologies I am new to power bi.
You have used Queue id in one formula and Name in another one. Could you please some sample data ? Or you can attach the sample PBI file as well.
Thanks
Raj
