I want to use Account Name in a Slicer but the list is too long if I use the GL Accounts table.
I'm figuring if I create a Calculated Account Name column in the Remuneration table (as above) then I can have a Slicer refer to that column then it will display the options I want.
I have not been able to find a solution to this problem on the Forum.
Can anyone help me with a formula to do this?
