How to refer to a page filter when creating a column?

I want to create a column that if the use select a single customer from the PAGE filter, the column display the customer name. If the use select multiple or all customers, the column displays "Multiple".  I did the following but it didn't work. I think it was looking for the filter from the current visual. 

 

SelectedCustomer = IF(ISFILTERED(Customer[CustomerName]), Customer[CustomerName], "Multiple")

 

Appreciate you help. Thanks.

Thanks Arul,
I changed to the following. It always has "Multiple" when I filtered the CustomerName at page level or visual level. 

 

SelectedCustomer = IF(HASONEVALUE(DSTrends[CustomerName]) = TRUE(), SELECTEDVALUE(DSTrends[CustomerName]), "Multiple")

@danyeungw ,

try this,

Customername = IF(HASONEVALUE('Customer Lookup'[customer_first-name]) = TRUE(),SELECTEDVALUE('Customer Lookup'[customer_first-name]),"Multiple")

Thanks,

Arul
