Filter/Distinct Count Help - Remove all records with same ID when one is filtered out.

Hello Community, 

Desperately need some help. Found similar requests and tested but have not reached a resolution.

 

I have the data below with 3 distinct IDs.

If I filter out records with Kiwi using a Slicer, I want to remove all rows with that ID number. So I'd be left with a count of 2 distinct IDs (records for ID 2 and 3).

 

IDItem1Item2
1applepear
1appleorange
1kiwibanana
2coconutapple
3pineappletomato

 

Thank you for your time.

    Hi, min-E 

    Create a new table to get an item1 that has nothing to do with the table to use as a slicer:

    Table 2 = SELECTCOLUMNS('Table','Table'[Item1])

     

     

    Create a new measure to exclude the id value of the item selected by the slicer:

    Measure = 
     VAR _ID = CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[ID]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table'),'Table'[Item1]=SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Item1])))
     RETURN
     IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[ID])<>_ID,1)

     

    Put Item1 from Table 2 into the slicer, and then put the measure into the table visual, here is my preview:

  • Just want to mention that I am using a slicer to filter records. I have a matrix with Distinct Count. 

    If I filter out only the row with Kiwi, I still have the same distinct count of IDs (3). Which is why I am looking to filter all the rows for that ID.
