Filter values based on static value
Hello,
I suspect this is a fairly easy one, but I'm struggling to work out whether the measure should be a CALCULATE(), SUMMARIZETABLE() or something else...!
Basically, I have a table with a list of component values, and I want to return the ones where a specific column equals a static value. On the below example, I'd like to bring back all ps_comp records where the field "sub_assembly_inc_lotion" equals "Yes".
Can someone advise, please?
| Parent | ps_comp | sub_assembly_inc_lotion |
| LQ20303X03 | 9041 | No |
| LQ20303X03 | 9045 | No |
| LQ20303X03 | 9046 | No |
| LQ20303X03 | 9048 | No |
| LQ20303X03 | LQ20303X03_F08 | Yes |
| LQ20303X03 | LQ20303X03_G01 | Yes |
| LQ20303X03 | LQ20303X03_G03 | Yes |
I refactored my tables and relationships to achieve it on a data level rather than within PowerBI.

A standard visual level filter should do that for you. Have you tried that?
Hi Dayna ,
If you still want the records where the field "sub_assembly_inc_lotion" equals "No" exist in the source query, you can follow the suggestion from to create a table visual and apply a visual-level filter with the condition (sub_assembly_inc_lotion is "Yes") on the table visual just as below screenshot.
And if you just want to keep the records where the field "sub_assembly_inc_lotion" equals "Yes" in Query Editor by using Filter function, you can handle with it in Power Query Editor.
Best Regards
My original use case was to use the value within the table alongside with other records, so I wasn't convinced that a visual filter would work... I'll see if I can change my approach a little, and perhaps link the charts to bookmarks to show different filtered views of the data based on the bookmark selected.
Thanks for the responses all, very much appreciate this forum!
