Slicer value for calculation

 I have a formula determining team utilization and want to use a slicer to insert a value of 0,5,4,3,2,1 into the calculation to reduce the overall work hours.

 

Utilization = sum of booked hours / workableHrs

 

workableHrs = sum of workable hours - slicer value (0,5,4,3,2,1)

    Hi cmiecz ,

     

    You should create a slicer table and try formula like below:

    workableHrs = SUM(YourTable[Workable Hours]) - SELECTEDVALUE(SlicerTable[SlicerValue])
    Utilization = SUM(YourTable[Booked Hours]) / [workableHrs]

    under modelling tab, 

    create a table using the enter manually  feature : 

     

    create a slicer visual and drag and drop the column to it .

     

     

    no in your code.  

     

    use selectedvalue( created_table_name[col_name] , [defaultvalue]) 

     

     

    NB : [defaultvalue] . in case you dont have w selection, the default value is used. 

     

     

    let me know if this helps .

    I have created a table with one column and my values as well as a slicer that I dragged the column values on it. Once I select a value form the slicer list my values are not adjusting. It is not seeing the slicer value.
