Scatter Chart -- Dynamic formulas not working

HI

 

I want to create dynamic scatter chart. that means, Based on Slicer selection X-Axis measure, Y-Axis measure should change automatically

 

X_axis_measure = IF(SELECTEDVALUE('X axis_Table'[X axis])="Total Customer",[total customer],IF(SELECTEDVALUE('X axis_Table'[X axis])="Total Products",[Total Products],if(SELECTEDVALUE('X axis_Table'[X axis])="Total Quantity",[Total Quantity],if(SELECTEDVALUE('X axis_Table'[X axis])="Total Profit", [Total Profit],if(SELECTEDVALUE('X axis_Table'[X axis])="Total Sales",[Total Sales])))))
 
Y_axis_measure = IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Y axis_table'[Y Axis])="Total Customer",[total customer],IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Y axis_table'[Y Axis])="Total Produts",[Total Products],if(SELECTEDVALUE('Y axis_table'[Y Axis])="Total Quantity",[Total Quantity],if(SELECTEDVALUE('Y axis_table'[Y Axis])="Total Profit",[Total Profit], if(SELECTEDVALUE('Y axis_table'[Y Axis])="Total Sales",[Total Sales])))))
 
X_axis = IF(SELECTEDVALUE('X axis_Table'[X axis]),[X_axis_measure])
Y_axis = IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Y axis_table'[Y Axis]),[Y_axis_measure])
 
in Scatter Chart :
X-Axis  ---> X_axis
Y-Axis  ---> Y_axis
Values ---> US State
Legend ---> Region
 
 By using above measures, iam getting this error ------- "Cannot convert value of type text to type True/False. 
 
 Please help!

@Anonymous , My advice would be to use a new field parameter feature and create to measure slicer
