Can I create a slicer that has 2 selections, but data has 3 categories? (slice A,B,C by A,B or A,C)

Hi there,

 

I have data than can be categorized as A, B or C and I need a slicer that has two selections: 

Selection 1: A,B

Selection 2: A,C

 

Example Data:

ItemsCategory
ShoesA
BalloonA
AppleB
CarC

 

Slicer Selection 1: A,B

= Shoes, Balloon, Apple

 

Slicer Selection 2: A,C

= Shoes, Balloon, Car

 

Any tips or guidance is appreciated!

 

Thanks

Hi @andrsnjhnstn ,

I don't quite understand what you mean. Can't you just multi-select in slicer? What do you mean by two choices in slicer? Can you provide more info on this?

How about applying visual level filters?
Just select the slicer and on the filter pane, just select the categories you would like the slicer to show.
