Setting up Slicer for DAX

[srlabhe123]

Hi I have a DAx below which I need to have on Slicer so that it can filter table visuals

QTY_Scrap_New =

if(([QTY_1_Day_SL]-(sum(NextDayDeliQty[QTY_Orig_Order])+sum(PastDayDeliQty[QTY_Past_Orig_Order])))<0,0,([QTY_1_Day_SL]-(sum(NextDayDeliQty[QTY_Orig_Order])+sum(PastDayDeliQty[QTY_Past_Orig_Order]))))

When I try to select the above DAX in slicer it does not allow me to select the same.

Kindly suggest.

Thanks

@srlabhe123 Since you are using if statment and value of the slicer depend on the if calculation that could be the reason it is not allowing you the use the value in slicer. try using some other alternative for your problem.

Hi @srlabhe123 ,

Based on your description, the formula you provide looks like measure. Measure cannot be used as a slicer directly, you can refer to these threads:
