Filter Multiple Responses

[BTMoylan]

Hey All, 

I have been building out a report that can filter based off a business location and type of product/service. I am almost done, but I am hoping to refine my results even more. If you look at the picture below, you will see my export table, this table gives me a list of contacts to reach out to for a given project. I am able to filter the results by type of product/service and location which is fantastic. However, if a business has mutiple locations I get all locations of that business not just the one location that is in range of the project. 

If you look at the first result on the list "APAC" this company has locations in Kansas and Oklahoma. You can also see in the second column the distance of that location to the project. So I want to make a filter that will keep the one(s) with the smallest distance, but only if that business has more than one address. In this case it would filter out the first two rows with a distance of 321.83 KM and keep the location that is only 48.80 KM away.

   

Any help is greatly appreciated thanks!

Hi @BTMoylan,

You can write a measure formula to extract the current distance and min distance based on category to compare and return flag. Then you can use this formula and flag as condition on visual level filter to filter records:

flag =
VAR currDist =
    MIN ( Table[Distance] )
VAR minDist =
    CALCULATE (
        MIN ( Table[Distance] ),
        ALLSELECTED ( Table ),
        VALUES ( Table[Organization] ),
        VALUES ( Table[product/service] )
    )
RETURN
    IF ( currDist = minDist, "Y", "N" )
