Extract specific rows from table

 

Hello guys!

I have a table with employees as shown below. I want to generate a new table containg the names of all those employees who are also managers. I think the two tables make it clear enough.

 

Employees table (given)Employees table (given)

Managers tableManagers table

So far I have produced the new table containg only the employee IDs that are managers but not sure if that's the right way to proceed.

 

Managers = FILTER (
DISTINCT (
SELECTCOLUMNS ( Employees, "managerID", Employees[manager] )
),
NOT ( ISBLANK ( [managerID] ) )
)

 

Thanks in advance,

Panos

Hello @pgoum 

Give this a try.  

Managers = 
VAR ManagerList = DISTINCT( Employees[manager] )
RETURN 
CALCULATETABLE(
    SUMMARIZE(
        Employees,
        Employees[EmpID],
        Employees[EmpName]),
    Employees[EmpID] IN ManagerList
)

Just an alternative

 

Calc Table =
CALCULATETABLE (
    Employees,
    TREATAS ( VALUES ( Employees[manager] ), Employees[empID] )
)
