Segmentation can filter another segmentation

Arthurfrc — Thu, 02 Feb 2023 12:45:39 GMT

Is possible for one segmentation filter to have options excluded or filtered from another segmentation filter?

Example:

1º segmentation filter
[x]A - [ ]B - [ ]C
2º segmentation filter
[disable]A - [x]B - [ ]C

3º segmentation filter
[disable]A - [disable]B - [x]C

Hi Arthurfrc ，

Sorry for that the information you have provided is not making the problem clear to me. Can you please share more details to help us clarify your scenario?

Please provide me with more details about your table and your problem or share me with your pbix file after removing sensitive data.

I wanna try something with my noob drawing in paint.

'A, B and C' are options in my segmentation 1,
each time I choose one of them , in next segmentations (2 & 3)
this option need to disappear.

Now this did any sense?😅

Hi Arthurfrc ,

Please try:

First create tree tables for slicers:

Then apply measure [Flag for segmentation2] to segmentation2, [Flag for segmentation3] to segmentation3:

Flag for segmentation2 = VAR _a = SELECTCOLUMNS ( 'Table', "1", [segmentation] ) RETURN IF ( ISFILTERED ( 'Table'[segmentation] ) && MAX ( 'Table 2'[segmentation] ) IN _a, 0, 1 ) Flag for segmentation3 = VAR _a = SELECTCOLUMNS ( 'Table', "1", [segmentation] ) VAR _b = SELECTCOLUMNS ( 'Table 2', "2", [segmentation] ) RETURN SWITCH ( TRUE (), ISFILTERED ( 'Table'[segmentation] ) && ISFILTERED ( 'Table 2'[segmentation] ) && MAX ( 'Table 3'[segmentation] ) IN UNION ( _a, _b ), 0, ISFILTERED ( 'Table'[segmentation] ) && NOT ( ISFILTERED ( 'Table 2'[segmentation] ) ) && MAX ( 'Table 3'[segmentation] ) IN _a, 0, NOT ( ISFILTERED ( 'Table'[segmentation] ) ) && ISFILTERED ( 'Table 2'[segmentation] ) && MAX ( 'Table 3'[segmentation] ) IN _b, 0, 1 )

Final output:

Great, thanks, it is what I was searching to my BI.

Just for curiosity... does this work with just one table or do I really need to copy the table to as many different options as I need??

Hi Arthurfrc ,

This cannot be achieved using just one table, because when you use only one table, the three slicers you create cannot be selected independently without being affected.
