Variations affecting all rows in table

Hi All,

 

I'm new to PowerBI & DAX and am struggling with creating a variation on a comparison of insurance products premiums for last 12 months agains prior 12 months. I've managed to create the LTM and PTM measures and this works for the insurer selected in a page slicer. The issue I have is that when certain insurers are selected I need to add back premiums for some products from a different insurer. Something like:

 

If insurer A is selected then show LTM and PTM allocated to A

If Insurer B is selected then show LTM and PTM allocated to B plus LTM and PTM for A but only for products 1 and 2

 

I'm trying to do this with measures to calculate the individual amounts and then with a SWITCH( TRUE(), measure. This works for the total, but it also adds to each row throwing those figures out. I'd appreciate if anyone can help me find a way to add only to the relevent product rows.

Here are my SWITCH( TRUE() formula and the table

 

Total including variations = 
SWITCH( TRUE(),
[Selected Insurer] = "Insurer A", [Total Premium] + [Insurer C Accident & Health Premium] + [Insurer C Professional Risks Premium],
[Selected Insurer] = "Insurer B", [Total Premium] + [Insurer C Marine Premium],
[Total Premium)

Hi @MarkEden ,

According to your description, in my understanding, you want for example for Insurer B, only when the Risk Class row is Marine, it should be "[Total Premium] + [Insurer C Marine Premium]", otherwise, it should be "[Total Premium]".

If this is the case, here's my solution.

Total including variations =
SWITCH (
    TRUE (),
    [Selected Insurer] = "Insurer A",
        [Total Premium] + [Insurer C Accident & Health Premium] + [Insurer C Professional Risks Premium],
    [Selected Insurer] = "Insurer B",
        IF (
            MAX ( [Risk Class] ) = "Marine",
            [Total Premium] + [Insurer C Marine Premium],
            [Total Premium]
        ),
    [Total Premium]
)

@v-yanjiang-msft thanks for this. I'll test this out. I think it might need a couple more variations but I can see the logic now.
