calculate a measure, with multiple conditions, that include static numbers for diff years?

I am trying to create a measure, that must be multiplied by static numbers depending on the year.

This is to be used in a horizontal stacked bar chart with year as legend and this meaure on X axis so that the year total is stacked in front of each other

total Save Money =
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
MAX('Date'[Calendar Year]) = "2022" ,CALCULATE((49/60)*350*sum('QUESTIONAIRES_CLEANED'[QUESTIONNAIRE_COUNT]),'QUESTIONNAIRES'[QUESTIONNAIRES_NAME]="Corporate notary generator EN"),
MAX('Date'[Date]) = "2021" ,CALCULATE((30/60)*350*sum('QUESTIONAIRES_CLEANED'[QUESTIONNAIRE_COUNT]),'SP-QUESTIONNAIRES'[QUESTIONNAIRES_NAME]="Corporate notary generator EN"),
0)

Hi @nrj1806 ,

 

Not sure about your data and model, but since you are using the year as the legend, you need to use the same field in the measure to compare.

 

total Save Money = 
SWITCH (
    MAX ( 'Date'[Calendar Year] ),
    2022,
        ( 49 / 60 ) * 350
            * CALCULATE (
                SUM ( 'QUESTIONAIRES_CLEANED'[QUESTIONNAIRE_COUNT] ),
                'QUESTIONNAIRES'[QUESTIONNAIRES_NAME] = "Corporate notary generator EN"
            ),
    2021,
        ( 30 / 60 ) * 350
            * CALCULATE (
                SUM ( 'QUESTIONAIRES_CLEANED'[QUESTIONNAIRE_COUNT] ),
                'SP-QUESTIONNAIRES'[QUESTIONNAIRES_NAME] = "Corporate notary generator EN"
            ),
    0
)
