Plot a measure that is based on a parameter or create a dynamic calculated column

HI

 

I have a paramater which sets a certain threshold value. This then looks at each row of my data and will estimate a date that particular row will meet that threshold. I have done it with a measure. I now have a table like this

 

120/10/2022
220/10/2022
326/10/2022
425/12/2022
527/9/2023

 

What I want to be able to do is plot the counts of dates as a bar chart. Therefore count how many rows match that date and have the date as the x axis. I expect the visual will change when i change the threshold slicer.

 

Is this possible?

    Hi fingalbrad,

     

    Use summarize to count the number of times a date appears in your result table:

     

    Count Table = SUMMARIZE('Result','Result'[Date],"Count",COUNT('Result'[ID]))

     

    Create the join between the dates in this table and Date table and use the Count column in the Y-Axis.

      This doesnt work sorry. What I should probably have explained better is this is the first table

      its called JP outputs

      NotificationFire Risk
      213000
      314000
      415000

       

      I have a paramater called fire threshold. This is a slicer on my page. I have created a measure called threshold date which uses the value of fire threshold and calculates the date the fire risk will grow to that value

       

      I then create a table visual and get

       

      NotificationTarget Date
      225/6/2023
      329/7/2023

      etc

       

      What I want to do is plot the target dates and the counts of notifications that have that date. I tried your method but I can't even use the measure that I created as an input

        HI fingalbrad ,

         

        If I understand you correctly, you want:

        Slicer(get the value) -> [Target Date] (Use the value to create a measure) -> Use the measure as a bar chart's x-axis(This step does not work, x-axis only accepts entity columns as values.)

         

        Best Regards,
