Hi ALL,
I have this question in a recent interview and want to check with you the correct DAX.
Question was to write a DAX using SUMX - Assume we have multiple measures(Profit, Sales,..) and 2 dimemsions (Products,Regions). If we select profit , it should display only profit numbers for products and Regions, Similarly If we select Sales , it should display only Sales numbers for products and Regions,
Please help with the DAX.

-- Slicer Table
SlicerTable =
DATATABLE(
"MeasureName",
STRING,
{
{"Profit"},
{"Sales"}
}
)
-- Measures
Profit = SUM('FactTable'[Profit])
Sales = SUM('FactTable'[Sales])
-- Dynamic Measure
SelectedMeasure =
VAR SelectedValue = SELECTEDVALUE('SlicerTable'[MeasureName])
RETURN
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
SelectedValue = "Profit", [Profit],
SelectedValue = "Sales", [Sales]
)
-- Display Measure
DisplayMeasure =
SUMX(
VALUES('DimensionTable'[Product]),
[SelectedMeasure]
)
-- Slicer Table
SlicerTable =
DATATABLE(
"MeasureName",
STRING,
{
{"Profit"},
{"Sales"}
}
)
-- Measures
Profit = SUM('FactTable'[Profit])
Sales = SUM('FactTable'[Sales])
-- Dynamic Measure
SelectedMeasure =
VAR SelectedValue = SELECTEDVALUE('SlicerTable'[MeasureName])
RETURN
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
SelectedValue = "Profit", [Profit],
SelectedValue = "Sales", [Sales]
)
-- Display Measure
DisplayMeasure =
SUMX(
VALUES('DimensionTable'[Product]),
[SelectedMeasure]
)
