Filtering visual with multiple criteria

Hi

 

I have a visual which basically shows this (sales for each department and status of approval, only for the last three days):

DepartmentNo. Of SalesStatusDate
Dept. 18Approved16.09.2021
Dept. 12Not approved16.09.2021
Dept. 211Approved16.09.2021
Dept. 34Approved16.09.2021
Dept. 15Approved15.09.2021
Dept. 28Approved15.09.2021
Dept. 37Approved15.09.2021
Dept. 31Not approved15.09.2021
Dept. 14Approved14.09.2021
Dept. 23Approved14.09.2021
Dept. 39Approved14.09.2021

 

What I'm trying to figure out how to filter this so that it shows the complete results for yesterday (16.09.21) regardless of sales being approved or not. And for all other dates it only shows rows where sales aren't approved. Which would be this:

 

DepartmentNo. Of SalesStatusDate
Dept. 18Approved16.09.2021
Dept. 12Not approved16.09.2021
Dept. 211Approved16.09.2021
Dept. 34Approved16.09.2021
Dept. 31Not approved15.09.2021
Dept. 22Not approved14.09.2021

 

Been trying to write a measure to add to filters, but can't seem to find the correct formula.

 

 

Regards

@MadBern85 You seem to need a Complex Selector: The Complex Selector - Microsoft Power BI Community

Maybe:

Selector Measure = 
  VAR __Yesterday = TODAY() - 1
RETURN
  SWITCH(TRUE(),
    MAX([Date]) = __Yesterday,1,
    MAX([Status] = "Not approved",1,
    0
  )

@Greg_Deckler 

Thanks a bunch, that seemed to do the trick! Only had to add the missing ")" after the second MAX statement.
