SelectedValue from a SPECIFIC PAGE

Hi, 

 

i have several pages with the same Slicer,

i am NOT syncing them, by design because each report has different outputs based on the slicer.

 

i need to have one report to "get them all together" , and this is where its tricky, i cant "tell" the measure - get the "slicer value" from that specific page.

 

* the temp workaround is "Filters on this visual", it works ,i can tell each visual which "slicer selection" needs to be, all on the same page. but i hate this approach, i prefer to have a Dax measure for it

 

what do you suggest, would love your help

Thanks

@Red217 You are on a good track, having visual level filters can be confusing, so better to create measures that are pre-filtering your data:

 

for example, the sum of sales of active products

 

Active Product Sales = CALCULATE( SUM ( Table[Sales] ), Product[Status] = "Active" )

 

Measure like above, you are filtering on active products rather than having a visual level filter where status = active. Use a similar approach, create your measures based on your business logic, and use in the visuals.

Hi, 

 

i managed to get the syntax right and it works like charm !!! 😉 , thanks for giving me the direction.

 

this is my syntax:

 

calculate(
SUMX(
SUMMARIZE(
'Table','table'[date],
"xxx", [measure]
),
[xxx]
),
'table'[Column] = "value")

 

Hi, 

thank you for the quick reply.

 

the measure that i trying to filter is the following:

measure = SUMX(
SUMMARIZE('table','table'[expression],
"XXX", [another measure] ),
[XXX] )

 

what is the syntax / way to add a filter to this measure by slicer ?
