    Thanks Pierrev31 

    Yes that clarifies it!

     

    Here is how I would write the RLS filter expression assuming the table is named Engagements:

     

    VAR UPN =
    USERPRINCIPALNAME ()
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        NOT ISEMPTY ( Engagements ),
        Engagements[Lead Eng Partner Email] = UPN
            || Engagements[Eng Partner Email]  = UPN
            || Engagements[Associate Partner Email] = UPN,
        ALLEXCEPT ( Engagements, Engagements[Lead Engagement] )
    )

     

    We only need to check the 2nd condition since it dominates the 1st condition. That is, if the current user exists on at least one row with the current row's Lead Engagement, then that user exists on the current row.

     

    Mock-up PBIX attached.
