create static measure
- 5 years ago
Anonymous , Create a table using enter Data and Have two Values Yes And No.
Keep it independent, means do not join with others
Then try a measure like
If(SelectedValue(Table[column]) ="Yes" ,Sum( 'Table1'[countNumber] ),Sum( 'Table1'[countNumberExcluded] ) )

Anonymous A little hard to follow but in general for this you want to created a completely disconnected table with your values. So create a table using Enter Data and just have two rows "Yes" and "No" in Column1.
Make sure that there are no relationships to this table.
Now, create a measure like this:
SelectedValue = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Column1)Finally, create this measure:
Measure1 = SWITCH(TRUE(), [SelectedValue] = "Yes",SUM( 'Table1'[countNumber] ), [SelectedValue] = "No", SUM( 'Table1'[countNumberExcluded] ), SUM( 'Table1'[countNumber] ) )The technique is called the disconnected table trick and you can learn more about it here: In general, to use a measure in that way, you need to use the Disconnected Table Trick as this article demonstrates: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Solving-Attendance-with-the-Disconnected-Table-Trick/ba-p/279563
