    Hi Pragadeesh_M ,

     

    Interesting set-up.

    Typically you would build RLS against dimension tables but seems you have all your data into one flat table. However, to accomplish this with your current model you'll have to ensure you disconnect the two tables.

     

    To make things easier, you'll need to create a key column in both your Main and User tables. The key will be your primary 3 columns you want to check against: branch, produce, and vehicle. Something like this:

    Access.Key = COMBINEVALUES("^", [Branch Code], [Product Code], [Vehicle Type])

     

    And then within your Manage Roles configuration, the DAX expression against your Main table would similar to this:

    VAR _UPN = USERPRINCIPALNAME()
    VAR _isMaster = COUNTROWS(CALCULATETABLE(YOUR_USER_TABLE, YOUR_USER_TABLE[User Mail] = _UPN, YOUR_USER_TABLE[Access Level] = "M")) >= 1
    VAR _IAM = IF( _isMaster, TRUE(), [Access.Key] IN CALCULATETABLE(VALUES(YOUR_USER_TABLE[Access.Key]), YOUR_USER_TABLE[User Mail] = _UPN))
    
    RETURN
    
    _IAM

     

    Of course, you'd replace YOUR_USER_TABLE with your actual table name.
