Understanding Evaluation Context in DAX
In simple language, we can say that the context is the “environment” under which the formula is evaluated. You can think of the evaluation context of a formula as the surrounding area of the cell where DAX evaluates the formula.
Context plays an important role in DAX and it enables you to perform dynamic analysis, in which the results of a formula can change to reflect the current row or cell selection and also any related data. Understanding context and using context effectively are very important for building high-performing formulas, dynamic analysis, and for troubleshooting problems in formulas.
