Excel Power Pivot. Related tables, pivot table repeats all row records

I have two tables that are connected by "Name." "People List" is a unique list of people, then "Responsibility" is accounts that they have ownership of:

Both tables are connected by "Name"

 

I need to organize it within a pivot table so that the "Name" comes from People table, and "Customer" from the Ownership list.

 

The problem that I'm experiencing is that when I drop these into the "rows" on my pivot table, account names repeat for each person.

 

How do I fix this so that only the assigned customers are visible for their respective people?

  • There's probably an elegant way to fix but my first thought is to add an isblank() check in an if statement.

        If you drop in name from your ownership table the extra rows should go away
