If Get Current Selection = this, exclude this

[uko223]

Hi,

I need to create an expression in a dimension that when one vale is selected, it will exclude the field of another dimension. For example,

Dimension 'TM Type' has two dimensions, TM and SAM

if TM Type SAM is selected, then the dimension, Adjustment Type, needs to exclude and adjustment call 'TM Adjustment' from the sales table.

T His is what I have below but any help would be appreciated.

=if(GetCurrentSelections([TM Type],'SAM'), Not Match([Adjustment Type],'TM Adjustment'),[Order - Adjustment Type])

PS: tried this in the measure but it hit performance pretty bad.

Maybe this:

=if(GetCurrentSelections([TM Type],'SAM'),

//IF TRUE

{<Adjustment Type="<>TM Adjustment">}Adjustment Type,

//IF FALSE

Order - Adjustment Type

)

this part -> {<Adjustment Type="<>TM Adjustment">}

will filter all the [ Adjustment Type ] that are "<>TM Adjustment" ( different than string ) and then use the value followed to work the table.

Double quotes means expression. Single quote means actual string.

Hi Felipe, thanks so much for your help. When I paste in that expression, I get "Error in expression:) expected"

Not sure why.
