I have a slightly different and weird data configuration. I have two tables that are structured differently (shown in separate visuals on the same report) and needs to be filtered different using a single slicer as shown below:
Let's say that teams are grouped as follows:
Team A is a team on its own
Team B is composed of three teams as follows: Team C, D, E
On Table 1, data is given for each team including separate data for Team B (which is composed of C, D and E) (ignore the "Data" column as those are just arbitrary values used for illustration)
Table1
| Team Name | Data |
| A | 1 |
| A | 2 |
| B | 3 |
| C | 4 |
| D | 5 |
| D | 4 |
| E | 3 |
| E | 2 |
On Table 2, data is only given for each team but not for Team B as follows:
Table 2
| Team Name | Data |
| A | 2 |
| A | 3 |
| A | 4 |
| C | 2 |
| D | 3 |
| E | 4 |
| E | 5 |
I have a multi-select slicer that lists all Teams A, B, C, D, E.
My question is, if I select Team A, C, D and/or E, I need to display and filter as usual for both tables. But if I select Team B, I need to display the Team B data (but not Teams C, D, E) from Table 1 and Teams C, D, E from Table 2. I am guessing I would need a measure for Table 2 but can't figure out how to do it. Please note that the slicer is also multi-select and there should be no duplication of data.
Basically, the slicer should work normally for Table 2 except when Team B is selected. It should also account that a multi-select or "Select All" should ignore Team B for Table 2.
I know that the data is weird but I need to work with what I have.
@Anonymous , Create a new column Table 2 and join that with common team dim, Also join table 1 with common team dim
New Team = Switch(True(),
[Team] in {"C", "D", "E"}, "B",
[Team]
)
Team Dim = distinct(union(Distinct(Table1[Team]), Distinct(Table2[Team])))
Thanks @amitchandak, I tried that solution earlier but it won't show anything if I select individual Teams, ie, C, D or E. Also, I forgot to mention that there is another table relationship (Date) linked to both tables which prevents me to link both tables to the Team slicer table (would introduce ambiguity).
