Remove blank when Parameter is selected

[non23]

Hey guys,

I need your wisdom with a matrix visualization where I have used a parameter to control the rows, allowing users to select their desired view. My goal is to hide rows that contain "Blank Approver" values when Approver Parameter is selected.

Here’s the issue:

• The "Blank Approver" rows represent rejected items, which should not be displayed if the user selects an "Approved" type.
• The challenge is that the "Blank Approver" rows should not be shown regardless of the selected type (Approved or Rejected) when the parameter is applied.

I have attached an image to illustrate how the matrix should look when both the parameter and type are selected (as an ideal scenario). Is there a way to achieve this behavior where the "Blank Approver" rows are completely hidden when only the parameter is selected?

I have managed to find a partial solution by following this link.

Unfortunately, I'm having issues with the Total as it's giving total of everything instead of the displayed values only. 

Any help on the total issue would be appreciated!

Hi @non23, 

Please check the following mesuare:

ShowRows = 
VAR SelectedField = SELECTEDVALUE(Parameter[Parameter Fields]) 
RETURN
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    SelectedField = NAMEOF('MainTable'[Approver]) && SELECTEDVALUE('MainTable'[Approver]) = "Blank", 0,
    SelectedField = NAMEOF('MainTable'[Rejected by]) && SELECTEDVALUE('MainTable'[Rejected by]) = "Blank", 0,
    SelectedField = NAMEOF('MainTable'[Created by]) && SELECTEDVALUE('MainTable'[Created by]) = "Blank", 0,
    1
)

 Then filter the visual with ShowRows=1 to remove Blank value:

Result for your reference:
