Sending data via ajax post using if statement

Actually I'm pretty new in jquery but I try to found if there is a way to achieve what I am looking for

actually here is my code:

saveData = function(){
$.post('server/admin.php', { 
    data: 1,
    user: userName
    }, function(response) {
        if(response == 1){
            location.reload();
        }
        else {
            return false;
        }
}); 

}

what I try to achieve is to have multiple different data set with the same function example

saveData = function(source){
$.post('server/admin.php', { 
       if(source == 1){
          data: 1,
          user: userName
       }
       if(source == 2){
         data: = 2,
         date: newDate
       }
    }, function(response) {
        if(response == 1){
            location.reload();
        }
        else {
            return false;
        }
}); 

}

as you can see in what I try to do is to send different data via post not always using the same $_POST value in case == 1 I send user in case == 2 I send date

Is it possible to achieve something like that without having to write a new function in jquery for every form I write if they go to the same processing file?

Try the following

  saveData = function(source){
    var sendData  ={};

    if(source == 1){// do the if outside of the ajax function
            sendData = {  data: 1,
              user: userName };
           }
           if(source == 2){
            sendData = { data: 2,
             date: newDate};
           }

    $.post('server/admin.php', sendData , function(response) {
            if(response == 1){
                location.reload();
            }
            else {
                return false;
            }
    }); 
    }
