Hello all,
I need some swarm intelligence 🙂
I have a table like this:
| Entity | Partner | Value |
| A | B | 200 |
| A | B | 100 |
| A | C | 200 |
| B | A | -200 |
| B | A | -100 |
| B | A | 500 |
| B | A | -150 |
| C | B | 150 |
| C | A | 300 |
In a Matrix Visual, I have Entity "A" via slicer selection.
Now I want to click on the Partner "B" in this matrix, and according to this selection see in a second matrix all the posting of the Entity "B" (which is the same as Partner B) with "A" as a Partner.
First, I wanted to create a dynamic table, but this is not possible I learned. How can this be achieved?
Added note: I already deactivated the Interaction between the slicer and the second matrix.
Thanks for your help!

Solved! Go to Solution.

You cannot achieve this if you want to use the cell in matrix 1 as the filter to change matrix 2.
For your requirement, you could create a distinct table for the partner column, and use it to create another slicer to be used for matrix 2.

Hmm, ok, but how can I display all bookings of B with A, i.e. transforming the
- Partner selection B to an Entity B
- Entity selection A to Partner A
@hashtag_pete , if both matrix or table entity and partner from the same table/s then it should filter the second table, because of interactions

Hello Amit,
you are right, I forgot to mention this and added it now: of course I deactivated the interaction between the slicer (that goes on Entity) and the second matrix
This second matrix should display the Value of Partner in Matrix 1 as Entity and Value of Entity of Matrix 1 as Partner
@hashtag_pete , if you deactivate interaction you can not pass the values. Not even to a measure
