    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Thanks for the reply from Jihwan_Kim .

     

    There is a little problem with your DAX syntax. Since I do not know your [Average People living with HIV recieving ART] and [% CAR By Age] measures, I used the columns directly. This is the adjusted one:

     

    AIIMeasure_text = 
VAR CurrentIndicator = SELECTEDVALUE('Summary Tab'[Indicator])
RETURN
SWITCH (
TRUE (),
CurrentIndicator = "Number of People Living with HIV Currently Receiving ART",MAX('Summary Tab'[value]),
CurrentIndicator = "Contraceptive Acceptance Rate (CAR)",FORMAT(MAX('Summary Tab'[value]) ,"0.0%")  //Assuming the measure is in decimal format
)

     

     

    Drag the measure to the report page for display.

     

    Select the three dots in the lower right corner, select Sort by, select the measure you created, and select descending order.

     

    pbix file is attached.

     

    I would be grateful if you could provide me with sample data for testing, please remove any sensitive data in advance.

     

    Best Regards,

Hello,

Thank you for getting back to me. I've attached a screenshot of the measure I require assistance with.

Regarding the measures, I aim to display one as a decimal and the other as a percentage, based on the indicator selection. Additionally, I would like the table to be sortable based on the indicator selection.

For instance, if I select the contraceptive acceptance rate, the table should display as follows:

Zone     Metric

A          97%

B          96%

C          85%

D          70%

I appreciate your assistance with this matter.
