Using a Slicer to filter concatenated Column
- Anonymous4 years ago
Hi Jenni3hugs ,
We still need a new table for the filter. And don't create relationship with Table1.
Then create a measure and use it on the table visual filter, set the filter to show items when value is 1.
Measure = IF(CONTAINSSTRING(MAX('Table1'[Scope]),MAX('Scope'[Scope])),1,0)The result should be like this.
Attach the PBIX file for reference. Hope it helps.
If this doesn't work for you, please consider sharing more details about it. And it would be great if there was a sample file without any sensitive information here.
It makes it easier to give you a solution.
- Sample (dummy dataset) data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar.
- Expected output from sample data.
- Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.

How to get your questions answered quickly -- How to provide sample data
I think your best bet would to use Power Query to manipulate the data so that you have one row per combination, so Report A would have rows for Employees / Finances, Employees / Human Resources etc.
Splitting the columns by delimiter and then turning the new columns into rows by pivoting or unpivoting ( I can never remember which is which ) should do the trick.
Hi! Thanks for your reply, but unfortunately with the actual Dataset that would create way too many rows for the final product. (that would be 9 rows for report A alone) Additionally, the format it is in is the format my department wants to use for the final dashboard. That's why I'm hoping to use a measure.
