Cross filter ( to exclude )

Hi pbhat89 ,
Not sure what you mean by "I read online that we cannot reference variables from a temp table in power BI." but check the post below by SQLBI where they make references to how to use variables calculations and get data from those tables.

Regarding my second comment I was refering that you can use the new M query parameters to make a new table that picks up the slicer values filtering your data and then use that 3rd table to make your data visualization in conjunction with the slicer of the condition.

Hi MFelix
When i create to create a temp table - it does not allow me to reference the columns in the calculate part. I read online that we cannot reference variables from a temp table in power BI.
For your other comment : could you advise how to do so?
If i have a table :
how do i create a dynamic table which updates based on filters on table 1 , and selection of above leading to changes in table 2 --> and table 1 thereafter ( not in part )
