Create a slicer (slider) or text box for user to calculate the replacement cost

[Anonymous]

I am trying to create a report for Computer Replacement Cost, I looking for ways to design my page.

Let me explain what I am trying to achieve, I need a text box or slicers to let the user choose the number of years of the computer and approx. cost, to get an estimate for the replacement.

I have this same report for SSRS, I am trying to replicate it on Power BI (SSRS report in the link), I am trying to use hardcoded values but, also ok to use dynamic values (allow the user to input values through slicers or text boxes)

I need help with the DAX queries to achieve this or is there a better way to the same. 

In the SSRS report, I have used case statements in the query, but since I am using the Import option on Power BI, I need other ways like measures to do it.

I appreciate your help. Regards,

Leonard

Hi @Anonymous ,

Please try to use SWITCH or IF.

If the problem persists,could you please share sample pbix and the result you expect?

In the above image is the query that I've used for the SSRS reports, If you notice I've used variables to create report parameters. I trying to do the same with Power BI with measures.

Again, sample data as text would help tremendously.

The equivalent of CASE is SWITCH in DAX. Use a SWITCH(TRUE()...) statement. The equivalent of DATEDIFF is DATEDIFF in DAX.
