Dynamically change visual value based on slicer value selection

In Power BI, You can change the visual value dynamically based on slicer value selection.

Requirement-

Suppose you have three measures – Sales, Profit & Discount, and user/ client want to see only selected slicer measure value on visual(one measure value at a time).

Expected output-

Change visual value dynamically in Power BI

Let’s understand how you can be achieve this-

Download the sample Dataset from below link-

• Global Super Store Dataset

Now follow these steps in order to achieve this-

Step-1: Create a static table with measure name.

Under Home tab > Click on Table icon > table dialogue box opens.

Then Change column header name( double click on header name and enter new name), after that enter measure name row wise.

Then provides the table name & click on Load button.

Step-2: Now add one slicer visual into report page and drag static table column “Type” into slicer. And set below properties for slicer.

• General: Choose Orientation : Horizontal &Turn on Responsive.
• Selection controls: Turn on Single select
• Selection header: Turn off selection header
• Items: Allows you to set the font size, font family, color & background color for Text.

Step-3: Create a dynamic measure for value change.

Right click on dataset name > New measure > Enter below DAX code.

Total Amount =
VAR TotalSales = SUM ( 'Global-Superstore'[Sales] )
VAR TotalProfit = SUM ( 'Global-Superstore'[Profit] )
VAR TotalDiscount = SUM ( 'Global-Superstore'[Discount] )
VAR SelectMeasure =
SELECTEDVALUE ( Navigation[Type] )
RETURN
IF (SelectMeasure = "Sales",TotalSales,
IF (SelectMeasure = "Profit",TotalProfit,
IF (SelectMeasure = "Discount",TotalDiscount,
BLANK ()
)))

Measure Description:

• Write DAX to get Total Sales, Profit & Discount and store all three calculation into three separate variables.
• Store Slicer selected value into variable “SelectMeasure”, Navigation is Static table name & Type is column name.
• Use IF condition, Passed measure variable name into condition based on selected values.

Step-4: Now add one clustered column chart into report page and drag Region column to Axis & measure to Values section.

Now it will change the visual value dynamically based on slicer selection.
