Hi
I know that you can bring a measure as a filter in the criteriabar, but can I make my own?
I have 2 measures in excel. Direct sale and Indirect sale. I would like to make a filter so you can choose either "Direct", "Indirect" or "Total".
Is that possible?

Hi Lotte,
No. But if you simply treat them as dimensions, then I think you will be fine.

Sorry. I probably made it sound too simple. It is a potentially complex operation you need to do on your data - in Excel or in your data warehouse.
In short, you will need to split each transaction into two transactions: One for Direct sale and one Indirect sale. Furthermore, you will need to introduce an extra column/dimension in your data, e.g. "Sale type" with values "Direct" or "Indirect" stamped onto the two transaction types.
There isn't a "magic trick" you can do in the client to make it work without enriching your data.
