Unable to use selectedvalue

Hi,

i am creating a filter table based on selected year of dimension table , but table is not returning any row for selected year. If i use static value of selected year i.e. 2019 then table returns rows so please help why dynamic year is not working.

Below is my code

FilterTable = VAR SELECTED = SELECTEDVALUE('Date'[Year]) RETURN FILTER(
UserDetails,
YEAR(UserDetails[ActionDate]) = SELECTED
)

Hi @shyamji ,

 

We cannot create dymanic calculated column in power bi. I suggest your to create relationship between table based on year columns and use table visual to work around.

Not 100% clear on this. Please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490

 

But, if you are trying to create an actual table in the model based upon a slicer selection that is simply not possible. Tables in the data model are calculated at refresh, they are not dynamic based upon dynamic user interaction. You can use a measure that includes a table VAR and that can be dynamic within the measure calculation. 

 

Bottom line, I'm not clear on what you are asking.

Hi,
would you like to explain how can we store  a table in measure? Measure can store a single value.My requirement is to store filtered column values from a table in to another table.
Thanks
