Row Level Security doesn't work with e-mail aliases
One other solution I would think of is in Power Query, where you know which of those 25 accounts are different to use a conditional column and where it is one of those accounts use the legacy email address or keep it as the current email address.
By doing it in this way you will not have to create a complex DAX measure to try and find the right value?
The right email addresses will all be in one column.
Hi GilbertQ
I am already doing as you suggest... my data is coming from an ERP system and the users standardized (jdoe@) email is in there and I have set up a separate table of legacy users.....in my query I do a case statement whereby if a legacy e-mail exists, use it, otherwise use the e-mail.
This is not the issue because I have tried this both ways - passing the legacy e-mail and the standard version. The issue is in the Service because I have tried testing using View As some of the legacy users and I know they are using the legacy e-mail that matches what the Service is pulling. I think what is happening though is that on those users, their Primary Email address is jdoe@ even though the service autofills to joe@.
Any user with a Standard e-mail works.....legacy do not.
Thanks,

I would then chat to IT to see what they can do to resolve the issue.
I would imagine that all the emails should be the same throughout the company?
And that would then solve your issue!- KevinColes5 years ago

In a perfect world yes...but it's my client not my company so I can't really dictate. Also the users are accustomed to the format they have so I'm not sure the appetite is there to change it now.
