    Hi Krisztian,

     

    In this scenario, please try this DAX formula to create a calculated table. Add a new column, specify a non-blank value for it.

    Table =
UNION (
    SELECTCOLUMNS ( Site, "SiteList", Site[Impacted Site.A] ),
    SELECTCOLUMNS ( Site, "SiteList", Site[Impacted Site.B] ),
    SELECTCOLUMNS ( Site, "SiteList", Site[Impacted Site.C] ),
    SELECTCOLUMNS ( Site, "SiteList", Site[Impacted Site.D] ),
    SELECTCOLUMNS ( Site, "SiteList", Site[Impacted Site.E] )
)

    Column = 1


    Then, drag a table visual in your report. 

     

    Thanks,
    Yuliana Gu

this works except, it's not being filtered by my report level filters, it seems since all the values come from a table that is being filtered it should work, any pointers on the filtering?
