    Hi rhcentennialh ,

     

    We use the following measure and get the expected result:

     

    Not identified by Outside = 
IF (
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Code] )
        IN SELECTCOLUMNS ( FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ), [Internal vs Outside] = "Internal" ), "c", [Code] ),
    BLANK (),
    "YES"
)

     

     

     

    BTW, pbix as attached.

    Hi rhcentennialh ,

     

    Can it filter the data you want if we put the following measure into the Visual Filter then set the condition as greater than zero?  Please try it without the measure in the value filed of table visual.

     

    Not identified by Outside 2 = 
IF (
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Code] )
        IN SELECTCOLUMNS ( FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ), [Internal vs Outside] = "Internal" ), "c", [Code] ),
    0 ,
    1
)

I was actually able to get this to work with the solution you provided.

 

However, i am now trying to filter to just the codes that have "Yes" next to them. When i look at your file i see that when i put the "Not identified" calculated measure into the values it doesn't show the Blank() codes. However when i do this same step it does not filter the table the same way. I actually see both the identified "Yes" codes as well as the Blank Field codes. I cannot seem to filter out these Blank() values.
