I created a switch formula for using slicer etc, and change indpendence of country , ok no prob funcionality ok

 

_PAL $ = SWITCH(TRUE();

[_PALET COST BY COUNTRY]="ES10";FORMAT([TOTAL PALETS]*VALUES('COUNTRY PALET COST'[COST]);"$0,00");

[_PALET COST BY COUNTRY]="PT03";FORMAT([TOTAL PALETS]*VALUES('COUNTRY PALET COST'[COST]);"$0,00"))

Hi @rdiazd73 ,

 

You could try something like this:

_PAL $
=SWITCH([_PALET COST BY COUNTRY], 
"ES10",FORMAT([TOTAL PALETS]*VALUES('COUNTRY PALET COST'[COST]);"$0,00"),
"PT03",FORMAT([TOTAL PALETS]*VALUES('COUNTRY PALET COST'[COST]);"$0,00"),
 [total cost for 2 countrys]
 )  

 

Best Regards,
Liang

Hi @rdiazd73 ,

 

I mean, you need to write the [total cost for 2 countries] calculation formula there. Maybe you could share the sample pbix so that I can understand your scenario better.

Try something like this

sumx(summarize(Table,Table[Location Id],"_1",[_PAL $]),[_1])
