Filtering multiple instances

Salesfile contains the fields Invoice Ref, Date, Week, Customer, Product & Quantity. (To keep things simple in this example the invoice line is unique for each row).

 

How can the invoice lines be listed in a Power BI Table (not Excel) just for products with more than 1 invoice in any week?

See example of Salesfile and the Desired Report. 

Note the Radio product only had one invoice in week 5 but 2 in week 6

 

Many thanks in advance for sharing hints and tips.

Hi @Ramps

 

One way is to create a CALCULATED TABLE....

From the Modelling Tab >>> NEW TABLE

 

Table =
VAR supportingtable =
    ADDCOLUMNS (
        SalesFile,
        "Morethan1Invoice", CALCULATE (
            COUNT ( SalesFile[Invoice] ),
            ALLEXCEPT ( SalesFile, SalesFile[Product], SalesFile[Week] )
        )
    )
RETURN
    FILTER ( supportingtable, [Morethan1Invoice] > 1 )

Thank you Zubair_Muhammad for helping me twice this week with hints and tips.

 

I got your well explained solution to work OK, thank you, and I will try the 2nd suggestion  later.

@Ramps

 

Or you can add a calculated column and use it to filter the table

 

Column =
CALCULATE (
    COUNT ( SalesFile[Invoice] ),
    ALLEXCEPT ( SalesFile, SalesFile[Product], SalesFile[Week] )
)
