Filtered Drop Down in sclicer
- Anonymous1 year ago
Hi chintusasmal123,
Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum.
From what you've described, you have a table where SH, UH, and LM are stored in separate columns along with the department name, and you are using a slicer based on a separate table where these names are flattened into a single column.
The challenge here is that the slicer (based on the flattened table) doesn’t have a direct relationship to the SH/UH/LM columns individually, so selecting a name from the slicer doesn't filter the department data as expected.
To get this working, you'll need a way to check if the selected name from the slicer matches any of the SH, UH, or LM columns in your main table. This typically involves creating a calculated column or measure that performs the check using DAX. Once try this :
IsSelected =
VAR SelectedName = SELECTEDVALUE(FlattenedTable[Name])
RETURN
IF (
SelectedName IN {
EmployeeTable[SH],
EmployeeTable[UH],
EmployeeTable[LM]
},
1,
0
)Then, you can use this logic to filter your visuals or build a measure that only shows departments where the selected person appears in any of the hierarchy levels.
I would also take a moment to thank danextian and ryan_mayu, for actively participating in the community forum and for the solutions you’ve been sharing in the community forum. Your contributions make a real difference.

Thank you.
could you pls also provide the data of another table?
