Make dynamic changing Header Name in table visual based on month , year slicer selection

Hi Guys,

I have been looking solution to change the header name dynamically in table visual for my 12 measures which are populating last 12 months columns (jan, feb,march..  ) sales data dynamically based on slicer month , year selection.

 

Scenario:

Chosen slicer details: Year - 2023, Month - March

 

Output in all 12 measures of table visual-

 

1st measure column- showing details of March 2022 

2nd measure column - showing details of April 2022 

3rd measure column - showing details of May 2022 

.

.

12th measure column - showing details of Feb 2023

 

Problem- But the Headers are constant and not changing as per calendar selected month and year from slicer, it has to be MMM-YYYY and should change dynamically. But above scenario, the headers should be MAR-2022,APR-2022,MAY-2022 ... till FEB-2023.

 

Looking for the positive response.

    Hi lazy_sapien ,

     

    You cannot have dynamic header names for a measure or column.

    But you can have dynamically results returned for the same measure in a visual.

    Basically the measure's result will change based on the selection of the slicer.

    In your case, you could use SWITCH() function to dynamically return different results based on your slicer.
