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?

 

Parentps_compsub_assembly_inc_lotion
LQ20303X039041No
LQ20303X039045No
LQ20303X039046No
LQ20303X039048No
LQ20303X03LQ20303X03_F08Yes
LQ20303X03LQ20303X03_G01Yes

I refactored my tables and relationships to achieve it on a data level rather than within PowerBI.

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!

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.

A standard visual level filter should do that for you. Have you tried that?
