RETURN 

SWITCH(TRUE(),
    ProfitbabilityMeasure = "Gross Margin", [Total Margin %] ,
    ProfitbabilityMeasure = "Net Sales", [Net Sales @AOP BM %],

Hi Route11,

 

What does your table look like? Does any relationship between table 'ProfitabilityMeasures' and 'Reporting'? The first selectedvalue in one table will automatically filter the second table. So possiblely because the first value filter the second table but the second value you selected is not in the filtered second table.
