Hi @Anonymous 

 

Please see the attached file with the solution.

 

For this solution, I have used the sample provided in this post you might have to create UnpivotedTable table manually and follow it be creating Measure like below.

 

Measure = 
SWITCH(
    SELECTEDVALUE( 'UnpivotedTable'[Index] ),
    0, [PY Purchase Value],
    1, [Volume Variance],
    2, [Mix Variance],
    3, [Price Variance],
    4, [CY Purchase Value] 
)
