User Input - Different parameter for each line

[AndySmith]

Hi

Is it possible to generate a list of products that allows the user to enter a different discount % for each line? So in example below the user would add the products and then for each line the user can add a different discount %

Is this possible in Power BI?

	Wholesale	Discount %	Discount	Price
Product A	100	5	5	95
Product B	100	10	10	90
Product C	100	20	20	80

Thank you @Jihwan_Kim - however the purpose of this would be to create a wine list for a resturaunt and therefore could have any number of different products. I think that Power BI is probably not the solution for this!

Hi @AndySmith,

According to your description, I think your scenario may not suitable for power bi usage.
Perhaps you can do these interactions externally (e.g. powerapps) and use power bi to design the visualization of these results.

You may create a  powerapps visuals to write back to data source and use same source in your report

Otherwise if you want to fix discounts for all products then you can also use What-If parameters to replace your discount values to parameterized values.

@AndySmith , You can write a calculated column to do that

New column =

Switch( [Product] ,

"Product A", .05,

"Product B", .03,

// add more

.02

)
