One filter for multiple fields?

Hi. 

In my report I would like to have the possibility to filter (slicer) on the priority fields. For example, if I select Priority 1, my list should consist of all cases. If I select Priority 2, only case 1 and 2 should be included. Even though the filter is in Desktop, I assume I should make a new field (DAX) or?  How can I solve this?

CaseNamePrio DKPrio SEPrio NOPrio FI
1Test 11 2 
2Test 221 3
3Test 3 31 
4Test 43  1

 

Thanks a lot in advance.

You could unpivot the Priority columns in Power Query:

= Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Changed Type", {"Case", "Name"}, "Priority Type", "Priority")
= Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Previous Step", {"Case", "Name"}, "Priority Type", "Priority")

giving a table like this

You could use a matrix visual to get your desired outpt
