Filter over 2 tables

[stefantaust]

Hello, I have two tables that aren't linked to each other. In the first table (blue), the value is selected using a filter visual. All "CP IDs" should then be displayed where the filter condition is met. Only the result for the respective filter should be displayed. Thanks, Stefan

Hi @stefantaust ,

if you really want the blue table as slicer, make an union table. That will solve the purpose. 

[stefantaust]

Hello, thanks for the reply. I've created another example of what the result should look like.

Here are the names of the columns:

Table 1: Blue Visual: 
'Definition MM-Daten'[SOMA Profil]

Table 2: Result:
'Prozess Schritte'[Phase ID]
'Prozess Schritte'[ZPCO_FERT_01]
'Prozess Schritte'[ZPCO_KAUF_01]
'Prozess Schritte'[CP ID]

Judging by your screenshot, you have a table, and you want to create a filter with the options "Only KAUF" and "Only FERT" for this table. When selecting "Only KAUF", the table should only show data for ZPCO_KAUF_01 (hiding the ZPCO_FERT_01 column and empty rows in ZPCO_KAUF_01). The same applies to "Only FERT".

Since you only need this for display purposes, why not make it simpler?
Here’s how:

1. Create two pre-filtered tables (one for KAUF, one for FERT).

2. Add a toggle (e.g., buttons or slicer) to switch between them using Bookmarks.

This way, clicking a button will instantly show/hide the correct table—no complex DAX required

If this option suits you, I could write you instructions on how to do it

[stefantaust]

The idea of ​​a pre-filtered table would be great.

Can you give me instructions on how to do that?

[Elena_Kalina]

Create two pre-filtered table versions (for "Only KAUF" and "Only FERT"), then follow the steps from the video to set up a toggle.

For your solution, you can also use radio buttons (like in the screenshots below) instead of a toggle.

[stefantaust]

Hello, radio buttons aren't ideal. It would be better if I could filter using the blue list.

'Definition MM Data' [SOMA Profile]

I've created two prefiltered tables with only KAUF and only FERT:

FilterStatus ZPCO_KAUF_01 = CALCULATETABLE('Prozess Schritte', 'Prozess Schritte'[ZPCO_KAUF_01]="ZPCO_KAUF_01")

FilterStatus ZPCO_KAUF_01 = CALCULATETABLE('Prozess Schritte', 'Prozess Schritte'[ZPCO_KAUF_01]="ZPCO_FERT_01")

 
How can I solve it using the "blue" Visual filter, which only shows KAUF or FERT?

[Elena_Kalina]

Then my solution doesn’t suit you. When I suggested creating two filtered tables, I meant two visuals using the same underlying table. This would allow simulating a slicer using bookmarks. Apparently, you need these tables not just for display purposes after all

Hi @stefantaust 

 I understand you want to filter the second table (Phase ID) based on selections in the first table (blue filter visual) without creating relationship between tables, am I right? Then try:

FilteredCPIDs = 
VAR SelectedCP = SELECTEDVALUE(FirstTable[CP ID])
RETURN
IF(
    ISFILTERED(FirstTable[CP ID]),
    CONCATENATEX(
        FILTER('Phase ID', 'Phase ID'[CP ID] = SelectedCP),
        'Phase ID'[CP ID],
        ", "
    ),
    "Select a CP ID"
)
