Simple Waterfall, how i can use a measure with a switch function to make a button

[menphis21]

Hello Everyone,

I have a table with a variable, value and also percents values.

I would like to create a button that can change the values of my graph simple waterfall. But it seemes that he is not able to accept measure.

Someone has a way to bypass this ?

thank you 🙂

My dax measure :

_Select Metric Capital Surplus = SWITCH(
true(),
"Percent" in ALLSELECTED('Metrics Capital Surplus'[Column1]), [_Sum Percent Capital Surplus],
"Values" in ALLSELECTED('Metrics Capital Surplus'[Column1]), [_Sum Value Capital Surplus] )

Hi @menphis21 ,

I think you can create a slicer and show dynamic results by a measure.

Measure Type = 
{"Percent","Values"}

Measure:

Measure = 
VAR _SELECTION = SELECTEDVALUE('Measure Type'[Type])
RETURN
SWITCH(_SELECTION,
"Percent",[_Sum Percent Capital Surplus],
"Values",[_Sum Value Capital Surplus])

Result is as below

This way could show values in only one data type. If you want show values in number type and percent in %. I suggest you to try calculation group in Tabular Editor .

For reference:

Data Labels! Formatting 100.00% as 100%

Hi

Thank your for your response.

First of all, i had to to create a data table by "Enter Data" because hi didnt accept me the measure in the selectedvalue function.

Also, it didnt want to accept me the measure in the waterfall chart. ( I use the simple waterfall plugin but i tried also with the native one and it doesnt work.) 

I put a screenshot to show you.

Thank you for your help

Hi @menphis21 ,

I think your issue should be caused by your data model. Can you share a sample file without sensitive data with me? And show me a screenshot with the result you want. This will make it easier for me to find the solution.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Sorry for the delai, i think that my response was not published.

I attached you all the screenshot to understand what's the need. The data model is very simple... so i am curious to understand why it's not working
