Problems with switch

Hello!!

 

I have a problem with a table.

I need a measure that looks for an id of a column, in another table, and depending on the result, of one value or another. The formula is this:

=SWITCH(TRUE();[Id_bo]='252'[Id_WebAgendas];1;0)

but it gives me an error: The value of the 'Id_WebAgendas' column in table '252' cannot be determined in the current context.

el id es un numero . Es una concatenación de distintos valores para crear un id unico (fecha, numero de empleado y codigo de tarea)

 

Thank you in advance

Hi @carolinapm ,

 

If the two column values are in the same table and put into a table visual, you can use the following measure:

 

 

=
SWITCH (
    TRUE ();
    SELECTEDVALUE ( '252'[Id_bo] ) = SELECTEDVALUE ( '252'[Id_WebAgendas] ); 1;
    0
)

OR

 

 

=
IF (
    SELECTEDVALUE ( '252'[Id_bo] ) = SELECTEDVALUE ( '252'[Id_WebAgendas] );
    1;
    0
)

 


If it doesn't meet your requirement, kindly share your sample data and expected result to me if you don't have any Confidential Information. Please upload your files to One Drive and share the link here.

Try creating a column instead of a measure.  Use Add column option.
