Parameterization in Calculated Columns

Given Table 1:

Group Name Value

X

A

2.00

X

B

3.00

Y

C

4.00

 

Creating a new numeric parameter X with a value of 7:

 

Then adding calculated columns AddOne = [Value] + 1 and AddX = [Value] + {X} will result to:

Group Name Value AddOne AddX

X

A

2.00

3.00

9.00

X

B

3.00

4.00

10.00

Y

C

4.00

5.00

11.00

 

Sample 1

Below is the defined breakdown in a Table visualization:

This Table visualization is showing the grouping of the columns based on the breakdown hierarchy with AddOneSum, AddXSum, AddOneCalc, AddXCalc as Visual Members with the corresponding aggregates and the X value is set to 7:
