I have created another table for measures viz. NTS, GP$, COGS and used as slicer shown below.

I need to create a custom column 'Final Change' in the data itselft which is either NTS/GP$/COGS change based on measure selected. I have call out the value of measure selected and used it in the IF statement to return the change but nothing works.

 

Someone please help me with the solution.

In order to better understanding your demands and give the right solution, can you tell me the calculation logic of your measure and what's your expected output ?

Hi Yadong Fang,

 

Hope you are doing great.

 

It would be difficult for me to create sample output in Power BI. Hence I am attching the sample output created in excel which I am trying to replicate in Power BI.

The objective is that I have 3 measures vis NTS Change, GP$ Change & COGS Change. I need to create a bar chart with any one of the change. THe measure selected is depend on the end user. 

 

Basically I need a dropdown for the above mentioned measures and the bar chart need to update based on selection.

 

Hope this clear and sorry for inconvenience.

 

Regards,

Sandip Talekar
