How to compare between severals values in a simple table

Hello,

 

I have a table with a colum with 3 différents values. Budget, R2 and realized ans another with sales numbers.

 

I need to compare the sales numbers values in termes of the three values R2, budget ans realized. I do not want to import my table twice.

 

The final objective IS to have a power Bi page with two card about sales numbers and two segment with the choice between the three values R2, budget and realized.

 

Thanks for your help

    Hi johnbasha33 

     

    Based on your needs, I have created the following table.

     

    Then you can create a field parameter.

    Put the created field parameters into the slicer.

     

    Create the following two measures to compare the difference between Budget, R2, and realized and put them into the card visual.

    Budget_realized = IF(SELECTEDVALUE(Parameter[Parameter Order])=0,SUM('Table'[Budget]) - SUM('Table'[realized]),BLANK())
    R2_realized = IF(SELECTEDVALUE(Parameter[Parameter Order])=1,SUM('Table'[R2]) - SUM('Table'[realized]),BLANK())

    You can achieve this in Power BI using a single table and measures. Here's a general approach:

    1. Create a table visualization with the sales numbers column.
    2. Create a slicer visualization with the three different values (R2, Budget, Realized).
    3. Create three measures to calculate the sales numbers based on the selected value in the slicer.

    Here's an example of how you can create the measures:

    ```DAX
    Sales R2 =
    IF (
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'YourTable'[YourColumn] ) = "R2",
    SUM ( 'YourTable'[Sales] ),
    BLANK ()
    )

    Sales Budget =
    IF (
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'YourTable'[YourColumn] ) = "Budget",
    SUM ( 'YourTable'[Sales] ),
    BLANK ()
    )

    Sales Realized =
    IF (
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'YourTable'[YourColumn] ) = "Realized",
    SUM ( 'YourTable'[Sales] ),
    BLANK ()
    )
    ```

    Replace `'YourTable'` with the name of your table and `'YourColumn'` with the name of the column containing the three different values.

    Once you have created these measures, add them to the card visualizations on your Power BI page. When you select a value in the slicer, the corresponding card will show the sales numbers based on the selected value.

    Additionally, you can use conditional formatting on the card visuals to highlight the values based on your requirements.

    This approach allows you to compare the sales numbers dynamically based on the selected value (R2, Budget, Realized) without duplicating the table.

      Hello johnbasha33 

       

      This IS where i am thank you to confirm myself in this solution to calculate the values.

      Maybe i did not use the correct words i am sorry, when a talk about compare i need to calculate the difference between two values selected. 

       

      How Can i do this ?

      The solution for now IS to load the table containing the values R2, budget, realized twice to make two slicers one for each tables 

       

      Thanks for your help.
