Hi @farhad_mahan 

It seems that you use the if() function in measure, when you use the condition, you need to add some function then the column can display,

e.g 

Measure =
IF ( SELECTEDVALUE ( table[id] ) = 1, 1, 0 )

If the column type is number, you can use the function as @Idrissshatila  mentioned, such as sum(), max() and so on, if the column type is text you can use the function such as, max(), selectedvalue().

Best Regards!

Hello @farhad_mahan ,

the if function in a measure only takes functions like sum(column) or min, avg or etc.. but it doesn't take a column value directly.

but when you're using if in a calculated column then you could reference the column directly.
