Hi  Anders_G ,

What data source you are connecting to? Please check if  Power Query Parameter can help you achieve the requirement.

1. Handle with filtering when load the data

Include Parameters within Power BI to Query a SQL Data Source

(x as text, y as text)=>let
    Source = Sql.Database("x", "y", [Query="select *#(lf)from z#(lf)WHERE [period_number]="&P2&"#(lf)AND [fiscal_year]="&P1&""])
in
    Source

2. Filter the rows after the data loaded

Using Query Parameters in Filter Rows

Best Regards
