How to create parameters in Power BI

Hi,

 

Can you please help me create the following paramter in Power BI?

 

Left or Remained(Parameter)

 

Value                  Display As

1                         Left

2                         Remained

 

Compute By (Parameter)

Attribute

Total Population

 

 

And then converting the following calculated fields in Tableau to DAX:

 

Compute Filter

CASE [Compute By]

WHEN '1' THEN [% Across]

WHEN '2' THEN [% Down]

END

 

N

IF [Compute By] = '1' THEN COUNTD([Student Id]) ELSE NULL END

 

N ALANA

{ FIXED [ALANA] :COUNTD(IF [Resident - Show/Hide] THEN [Student Id] END)} + { FIXED [ALANA] :COUNTD(IF [Resident - Show/Hide] = FALSE THEN [Student Id] END)}

 

 

Thanks!

@Anonymous , You can do the first one you can use switch like

 

Switch(selectedvalues([Compute By]) ,
"1" , [% Across] ,
"2" , [% Down]
)

 

if (Max([Compute By]) = "1" , COUNTD([Student Id]) , blank())

 

or

if (selectedvalu([Compute By]) = "1" , COUNTD([Student Id]) , blank())

 

for fixed refer my video

Hi Amit,

 

I am getting the following error message:

"The DISTINCTCOUNT function only accepts a column reference as an argument."

 

N ALANA = CALCULATEDISTINCTCOUNTIF (Sheet1[Resident - Show/Hide]Sheet1[Student Id]ALLEXCEPT(Sheet1Sheet1[ALANA]) ) ) )
&
CALCULATEDISTINCTCOUNTIF(Sheet1[Resident - Show/Hide] = "FALSE"Sheet1[Student Id]), ALLEXCEPT(Sheet1Sheet1[ALANA]) ) )
 

Thanks!

Hi  @Anonymous , 

 

The DISTINCTCOUNT function counts the number of distinct values in a column. There should be a column name in the function. You should create a formula like

N ALANA = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT( <column>, FILTER(<table>,<filter>))

 

Best Regards,
