Calculated dynamical table

Hello,

How to create a dynamic virtual table that will be updated every time the user changes his selection in the Slicer?

The virtual table should contain the selected value in the filter + id of each group.

I have been working on a formula for a virtual table, but it doesn't work:
SelectedUsergroups =
FILTER(
ADDCOLUMNS(
VALUES(D_Usergroups[Usergroup Desc]),
"Selected", IF(ISFILTERED(D_Usergroups[Usergroup Desc]), "Yes", "No")
),
[Selected] = "Yes" && NOT(ISBLANK(D_Usergroups[Usergroup Desc])) &&
CONTAINS(D_Usergroups, D_Usergroups[Usergroup Desc], D_Usergroups[Usergroup Desc])
)

 

Data sample I have:

Slicer was added (with pre selected values as example):

@slyfox Maybe you can create calculated table as a exact copy of your original one, and then create some measures to scan what values are selected in the slicer, like the following:

 

 

IsSelected = IF(MAX('CalculatedTable'[Usergroup]) in ALLSELECTED('Table'[Usergroup]),1,0)

 

 

and then in your table / matrix / bar chart / whatever vis, use the fields in your CALCULATEDTABLE and add [IsSelected]=1 as the visual filter.

 

Hope you find this helps.
