Show Text for no data - Dax

Anonymous Not sure if it will help but here:
Any chance you can share sample data as text so that I can mock this up?

Hi Anonymous
When a measure is forced to display something other than its actual value when blank, the formula engine performs a full cross-join of the dimension tables in the visual, evaluating each row explicitly. This can result in unexpected data points appearing. For example, a previously removed ID (e.g., one terminated in 2013) may still appear for a selected period, such as late February, but with custom values. That's why you're seeing RDO for those that are not within the slicer selection. You can add a condition to your measure to show only when a date is within the selected range.
VAR MinDate = CALCULATE ( MIN ( 'calendar'[date] ), ALLSELECTED ( 'calendar' ) ) VAR MaxDate = CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'calendar'[date] ), ALLSELECTED ( 'calendar' ) ) RETURN IF ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'calendar'[date] ) >= MinDate && SELECTEDVALUE ( 'calendar'[date] ) <= MinDate, [rdo measure] )
Hi,
It is not a good practise to have formulas return mixed data types.
