Hello,
I'd like to automatically generate a table like this:
Tag | Value |
2 or more | 2 |
2 or more | 3 |
2 or more | 4 |
2 or more | 5 |
2 or more | 6 |
2 or more | 7 |
2 or more | 8 |
2 or more | 9 |
2 or more | 10 |
4 or more | 4 |
4 or more | 5 |
4 or more | 6 |
4 or more | 7 |
4 or more | 8 |
4 or more | 9 |
4 or more | 10 |
6 or more | 6 |
6 or more | 7 |
6 or more | 8 |
6 or more | 9 |
6 or more | 10 |
8 or more | 8 |
8 or more | 9 |
8 or more | 10 |
So:
Tag = "2 or more" generate rows with range 2-10
Tag = "4 or more" generate rows with range 4-10
Tag = "6 or more" generate rows with range 6-10
Tag = "8 or more" generate rows with range 8-10
Ultimately I want to link this table to my main table on the Value column, and use it to create a >= filter in a visual that is inclusive, so that the user can chose "2 or more" and get values >= 2, select "4 or more" and get values >=4, and so on.
Open to other suggestions to accomplish this as well if you think there is a better way, but would still love to know if this can be done the way I'm describing above.
Thanks!

Solved! Go to Solution.
Try:
n or more =
VAR _2OrMoreValues =
GENERATESERIES ( 2, 10, 1 )
VAR _Prefix2 =
SELECTCOLUMNS ( { "2 or more" }, "Param", [Value] )
VAR _2Table =
CROSSJOIN ( _Prefix2, _2OrMoreValues )
VAR _4orMoreValues =
GENERATESERIES ( 4, 10, 1 )
VAR _Prefix4 =
SELECTCOLUMNS ( { "4 or more" }, "Param", [Value] )
VAR _4Table =
CROSSJOIN ( _Prefix4, _4OrMoreValues )
VAR _6OrMoreValues =
GENERATESERIES ( 6, 10, 1 )
VAR _Prefix6 =
SELECTCOLUMNS ( { "6 or more" }, "Param", [Value] )
VAR _6Table =
CROSSJOIN ( _Prefix6, _6OrMoreValues )
VAR _8OrMoreValues =
GENERATESERIES ( 8, 10, 1 )
VAR _Prefix8 =
SELECTCOLUMNS ( { "8 or more" }, "Param", [Value] )
VAR _8Table =
CROSSJOIN ( _Prefix8, _8OrMoreValues )
RETURN
UNION ( _2Table, _4Table, _6Table, _8Table )
However, for what you seem to need it for, I suggest a different table. Any relationship with the above table wil be many-to-many, which is to be avoided.
Instead, create a table with the threshold for each "n or more", keep it unrelated and then use a measure to return the filtered values:
On or Above threshold =
CALCULATE (
[Sum value],
FILTER (
'Product Table',
[Sum value] >= SELECTEDVALUE ( 'n or more (unrelated)'[Threshold] )
)
)
