I have 2 tables: many Stages to each Request. Both tables coming from a SQL database.
In Power BI, I want to allow easy filtering of all the Requests which have a Stage of type 'ABC'.
This is the logic I would use in SQL:
select Requests.RequestId
from Requests
where RequestStatus = 'Active'
and exists (select *
from Stages
where Requests.RequestId = Stages.RequestID
and Stages.StageName = 'ABC')
The SQL above returns the Request records I'm interested in.
My idea is to add a new column to the Request table in Power BI, and allow filtering on that new column.
But I can't work out the DAX syntax for my new column.
My two tables are joined/related in Power BI.
Thanks for any help
Solved! Go to Solution.
I found one way to solve this. Posting my answer in case it might help someone else ...
My new column on the Requests table:
Request Has ABC Stage = COUNTROWS(FILTER(RELATEDTABLE(Stages),Stages[StageName]="ABC"))>0
This gives a nice True/False value at Request level, for use in filters.
Any alternative answers would be gratefully received too
