Variable not allowed

Hi,

I'm pretty new into DAX formulas.

I'd like to know the reason why in the formula reported into the screendshot there is no possibility to inser the variables of the table.

I need to write a formula like this--> If(Ship Date<>Blank(), 1,0) -->why it is not allow to me?

Hi @giroldoale ,

 

In the measure, if you want to get the row value you will need to use SELECTEDVALUE() function.

So your measure should be like:

IF(SELECTEDVALUE(skip date)<>blank(),1,0)
