Parameter for Measure

Hi All,

just wanted to check how can i use the parameter for column calculation?

I have multiple DAX columns created and I want to change the numbers by giving a Parameter.

I need to give parameter after > should get selected automatically. I cannot create a measure for this because it should be added at each row level.


Available week 1 = IF('EMEIA FSO CNS - Available Hours'[Available Time Week 1]> 16,"1","0")
 
Kindly let me know if I can do any workaround for this.
 
Regards,
ranjan

Hi @RanjanThammaiah ,

 

I think the what-if-parameter is the workaround you want. 

You can create what-if variables for your reports, interact with the variable as a slicer, and visualize and quantify different key values in your reports.

 

Reference: Create and use what-if parameters to visualize variables in Power BI Desktop

Calculated columns cannot be responsive to dynamic parameters in a report since they are only calculated once each time the table they belong to is refreshed.
