Step 1: Creating a Support Table containing DAX Measures List













Tip: Assign appropriate table name


Add the table to the data model:


Step 2: Add DAX measures using SWITCH


Default Measure Selection = MIN(MeasureTable[Index])

Measure Switch
=SWITCH(
	[Default Measure Selection],
	1,[Orders by Ship Date],
	2,[Returned Orders],
	3,FORMAT([Returned Sales Amt],"0,0.0"),
	4,FORMAT([Sales Amount],"0,0.0"),
	5,[Total Orders]
)


Step 3: Add a Slicer in the Pivot Table for Measure Name

Add a slicer with the Measure Name column.


Ensure one item is selected in slicer before we add the DAX measure in the Pivot.


Step 4: Add the DAX measure in the Pivot


And that is it!
