Create list based on multiple columns
- Anonymous9 years ago
Naturally, that would happen, if you unpivot.
The reason, I'm asking, is that there is no intuitive way to slice the original table like you are asking for unless you create all the possible combinations of the 3 columns. That can be done in 2 ways (as I see it). Either unpivot or create all the combinations with a concatenate function (which, I think, is a very clumsy method). Either way, your database will grow in size. Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with any convenient way to slice like you are asking for.

Hi Martin,
Thank you for all your help. Though not the outcome I hoped for at least now I know there are no alternate solutions.

Hi Martin,
Sorry for the late reply. I am aware of the hierarchy slicer, quite a nice visual (though too slow for large hierarchies).
I am actually not looking to see this in a hierachy. I am trying to get (manually) selected values from different columns in 1 flat list/ slicer.
Hi Sander800
No problem. I see. So you want a column with all the values from your table, which you can then slice on? Is that correctly understood? If I don't understand correctly, could I ask you to elaborate a little more, possibly provide a new example? I really want to help you :)
Best,
Martin
