Create a filter/dimension for measures

[Bunta]

Hi,

I have a number of measures in my workbook, 10, which are laid out in the order Code, Date, Measure 1, Measure 2, ... Measure 9, Measure 10 where code is the location and date is the date the date the measures was taken. They are all taken on the same date and represent different things. What i would like to do is a create a dimension for the measures that can be used in a filter to change the measure that is displayed in a table. The reason being that when it gets published and the user goes to the Power BI weblink they can't see the fields so can't change what is shown and I want to give them that ability.

Is there a way to get this done in Power BI without reformatting the data?

Thanks

Hi Matt,

Thanks for this it worked for me. I had to tweak the switch formula thoguh to be sum('Table_name'[measure 1]) as it didn't recognise it with out the calucation and would only use measure I had already calculated. Apart that small tweak it worked perfectly.

Thanks
