Slicer by columns name
- 9 years ago
Hi Anonymous,
I would solve this using a measure do the following:
- Create a table (do not related this with any other tables with the following structure:
- Name Slicer - Selection: Unity_Price, Tax_1, Tax_2, Tax_3, Tax_4
- Add the following measure to your data table:
Final_Price = VAR Unity_price = IF ( CONTAINS ( Slicer, Slicer[Selection], "Unity_Price" ) = TRUE (), SUM ( Sales[Unity_Price] ), 0 ) VAR Tax1 = IF ( CONTAINS ( Slicer, Slicer[Selection], "Tax_1" ) = TRUE (), SUM ( Sales[Tax_1] ), 0 ) VAR Tax2 = IF ( CONTAINS ( Slicer, Slicer[Selection], "Tax_2" ) = TRUE (), SUM ( Sales[Tax_2] ), 0 ) VAR Tax3 = IF ( CONTAINS ( Slicer, Slicer[Selection], "Tax_3" ) = TRUE (), SUM ( Sales[Tax_3] ), 0 ) VAR Tax4 = IF ( CONTAINS ( Slicer, Slicer[Selection], "Tax_4" ) = TRUE (), SUM ( Sales[Tax_4] ), 0 ) RETURN Unity_price + Tax1 + Tax2 - Tax3 - Tax4- Now just add the valuies from the table you created to a slicer and your measure to the table should give the expected result:

Hi Anonymous,
When you use measure they are calculated based on context so you cannot make the calculations based on a single value from a colum, meaning that when you have
VAR On_Time = IF ( CONTAINS ( Slicer, Slicer[V_Selection], "On Time" ) = TRUE (), Divide( 'Volvo ETA'[On-Time], 'Volvo ETA'[Total], Blank()), 0 )
You should have something like this:
VAR On_Time =
IF (
CONTAINS ( Slicer, Slicer[V_Selection], "On Time" ) = TRUE (),
DIVIDE ( SUM ( 'Volvo ETA'[On-Time] ), SUM ( 'Volvo ETA'[Total] ), BLANK () ),
0
)In this way you are aggregating the values, however be carefull because this can sometimes based on context not return the expected result.
Can you please share some sample data and show the expected result in that way I can adjust the formula better.

Hi MFelix,
I want to create a slicer of multiple columns based on another slicer having parameters.
for example raw data is like this:
| Event | Student ID | Maths teacher | Science Teacher | English Teacher |
| Exhibition | 1 | Ravi Chandra | Spriha Das | Vandana p |
| Exhibition | 2 | RK Das | Mamta Chobey | |
| Exhibition | 3 | Rajesh Ranjan | Rajesh Ranjan |
So first slicer should have values like Maths, Science and English:
| Slicer 1 |
| Maths |
| Science |
| English |
And second slicer should filter based on Slicer 1 for example if Maths is selected in slicer 1 , then slicer 2 should have following values:
| Slicer 2 |
| Ravi Chandra |
| RK Das |
And table should show this:
| Event | Student ID | Maths teacher |
| Exhibition | 1 | Ravi Chandra |
| Exhibition | 2 | RK Das |
I tried with field parameters but it cant be used in report server
Please help me with this.
