How to capture the lower and upper user input for a Between Filter

Hello Group, 

 

So i have a situation where i have a Between Filter on one of my measure column on my Report page....in that measure, values range from $5 to $50000. 

User uses the between filter to see the amounts only between $0 and $500. This is working fine. 

 

Now, on my report as a header i need to show the Filters applied. where i want to show that RANGE SELECTED BY USER is between $0 and $500.

 

now if i use MIN(measure column) and MAX(measure column) function, they dont serve the purpose as these return the MIN and MAX values in the column after the filter not the MIN and MAX values entered by user.

 

Is there anyway to handle this.

 

Thanks in advance

    Hi poojawadhwa 

     

    It’s impossible to return a value that is typed in but does not exist in the Entity Data table.

    If you want to return 0 and 500, it's necessary for your measure to be able to return these 2 values.

    For example, here I have a table:

    When I apply a filter(30-100), I can get the max value 100 and the min value 57, because the measure have the 100 output but without a 30 output.

    Here is a alternative workaround for your reference:

    Add a table to control the scope and create a slicer with this field:

    Add one measure to replace the measure in the table visual and 2 measures to get the slicer range:

    MEASURE 2 =
    IF (
        [Measure] >= MIN ( 'Table 2'[Value] )
            && [Measure] <= MAX ( 'Table 2'[Value] ),
        [Measure]
    )
    
    Range_Min = MIN('Table 2'[Value])
    Range_Max = MAX('Table 2'[Value])

    The result is as follow:
