Filtering Mixed Groups

I've got data roughly as below:   Part Number System Pressure Size A1929 Horizontal 1000bar 5mm A2910 Horizontal + Vertical 1000bar 7mm A2819 Horizontal 1500bar 5mm+7mm A...

    Hi, Anonymous 

    You can create three calculated table as follows.

     

    PressureSlicer = DISTINCT('Table'[Pressure])
SizeSlicer = DISTINCT('Table'[Size])
SystemSlicer = DISTINCT('Table'[System])

     

     

    Then you may create three measures as follows.

     

    ContainPressure = 
IF (
    SUMX (
        FILTERS ( 'PressureSlicer'[Pressure] ),
        IF (
            CONTAINSSTRING ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Pressure] ), [Pressure] ),
            1,
            BLANK ()
        )
    ) <> 0,
    1,
    0
)

ContainSize = 
IF(
    SUMX(
        FILTERS(
            SizeSlicer[Size]
        ),
        IF(
            CONTAINSSTRING(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Size]),[Size]),
            1,
            BLANK()
        )
    )<>0,
    1,
    0
    
)

ContainsSystem = 
IF(
    SUMX(
        FILTERS(
            SystemSlicer[System]),
            IF(
                CONTAINSSTRING(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[System]),[System]),
                1,
                BLANK()
            )
    )<>0,
    1,
    0
    
)

     

     

    Finally, you may put these measures in visual level filters and configure as follows.

     

    Result:

Hi, Anonymous 

 

You can put fields 'System', 'Pressure', and 'Size' into slicer visuals, put the your desired fields into Table visual. When you make some selections in slicers, the table visual will return corresponding result. If you need the slicer works on the dashboard in Power BI service, you might click 'Pin a live Page' to pin the current page to the dashboard.

 

If I misunderstand your thoughts, please inform me of your expected output. I am glad to solve the problem for you.

 

Best Regards,

 

Allan

    Thanks Allan.  I maybe wasn't clear enough.  What I'm trying to do is have a simplified filters, so that there is just one button to click for '1000bar' for example, which would filter '1000bar' and '1000bar + 1500bar'.  And one buttong for '1500bar', which would filter '1000bar + 1500bar' and '1500bar'.  The data i have is more complex than the example I've shown, so not simplifying it this way would make filtering the standard way, as you've shown, far more complicated and time consuming.
