Data structure with hierarchy and multiple selections

Hi,   I'm new to the Community, so sorry for posting such an easy question (I guess). But I cannot find any solutions online as of yet.   I have three tables. A shows the main units, B shows the ...

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    You need to add 3 columns to your Kategorier table:

     

    Level1 = 
VAR LevelNumber = 1
VAR LevelKey = PATHITEM (Kategorier[Path], LevelNumber, INTEGER )
VAR LevelName = LOOKUPVALUE ( Kategorier[Label], Kategorier[Child], LevelKey )
VAR Result = LevelName
RETURN
    Result



Level2 = 
VAR LevelNumber = 2
VAR LevelKey = PATHITEM (Kategorier[Path], LevelNumber, INTEGER )
VAR LevelName = LOOKUPVALUE ( Kategorier[Label], Kategorier[Child], LevelKey )
VAR Result = LevelName
RETURN
    if(ISBLANK( Result), Kategorier[Level1], Result)



Level3 = 
VAR LevelNumber = 3
VAR LevelKey = PATHITEM (Kategorier[Path], LevelNumber, INTEGER )
VAR LevelName = LOOKUPVALUE ( Kategorier[Label], Kategorier[Child], LevelKey )
VAR Result = LevelName
RETURN
    if(ISBLANK( Result), Kategorier[Level2], Result)

     

    Now adapt your measure to:

    Counts = 
CALCULATE (
    COUNT ( Avvikene[Avvik] ),
    CROSSFILTER ( Avvikene[Avvik], Kategorivalg[Avvik], BOTH ),
    FILTER (
        ALL ( Kategorivalg[Verdi] ),
        Kategorivalg[Verdi]
            IN VALUES ( Kategorier[Kategori Sti] )
                && Kategorivalg[Verdi] = SELECTEDVALUE ( Kategorivalg[Verdi] )
    )
)

    Thank you for all the help! I figured it out without making the relationship. Instead I simply repeated the steps in table C (after unpivoting) with the use of LOOKUPVALUE. This is probably not the best way to build the model, but it works. Thank you Miguel for all the help.

Thanks again for replying!

The numbers you gave are correct. But I still need to be able to slice these in a hierarchy. Sort of like this:

 

And as far as I can see, I still need the relationship, because I want to show the name of the category (not the complete path) in the charts I'm producing.

How exactly is the result in column B depending on values in table C? The two tables come from different sources, and all I did with the columns in table B is to create the path and level.

I can't seem to get my head around this. Sorry about that. Greatful for all the help!
