SWITCH function with two columns

hi everyone, I need help with a formula that I think should use Switch function.

I have this table (Jerarquia de medidas)

Level 1Level 2
TON 
GSV 
OFFTactic
OFFManual
OFFTax

 

And I have in my data base, a formula for each measure: a formula for OFF, TON, GSV, Tactic, Manual and Tax.

So I need a formula that brings for each level,  the corect formula.

So, I developed this:

 

Formula=

VAR KpiList2= SELECTEDVALUE('Jerarquia Medidas'[Level 2])
VAR KpiList1= SELECTEDVALUE('Jerarquia Medidas'[Level 1])
 
RETURN

SWITCH(KpiList2;
"Manual";[Manual]
;"Tactic";[TACTICO]
;"Tax";[Tax]
)
&&
SWITCH(KpiList1;
"TON";[TON]
;"GSV";[GSV Factura])

The problem is that when I create a table with Level 1 and Level 2 and use this formula, it brings only True and False.
 
Any ideas???
 
Thanks!!!!

Hi @MariaFlorenciaB 

Try this

Formula = 
VAR KpiList2 = SELECTEDVALUE('Jerarquia Medidas'[Level 2])
VAR KpiList1 = SELECTEDVALUE('Jerarquia Medidas'[Level 1])
RETURN
SWITCH(
    KpiList1;
    "TON"; [TON];
    "GSV"; [GSV Factura];
    SWITCH(
        KpiList2;
        "Manual"; [Manual];
        "Tactic"; [TACTICO];
        "Tax"; [Tax]
    )
)

Hi @MariaFlorenciaB 

Try this

VAR KpiList1 = SELECTEDVALUE('Jerarquia Medidas'[Level 1])
RETURN
SWITCH(
    KpiList1;
    "TON"; [TON];
    "GSV"; [GSV Factura];
    SWITCH(
        KpiList2;
        "Manual"; [Manual];
        "Tactic"; [TACTICO];
        "Tax"; [Tax]
    )

@Mariusz Sorry, I only have one problem:

 

If I add the line OFF to the formula:

 

Formula = 
VAR KpiList2 = SELECTEDVALUE('Jerarquia Medidas'[Level 2])
VAR KpiList1 = SELECTEDVALUE('Jerarquia Medidas'[Level 1])
RETURN
SWITCH(
    KpiList1;
    "TON"; [TON];
    "GSV"; [GSV Factura];
"OFF"; [OFF]; SWITCH( KpiList2; "Manual"; [Manual]; "Tactic"; [TACTICO]; "Tax"; [Tax] ) )

 I only see the total number of OFF for the measure OFF and for the measures Manual, Tactic and Tax.

 

Do you know why this happens?

Thanks very much @Mariusz !!
