Help with ISCROSSFILTERED between two tables.

Hello, 

 

I current have a dashboard that contains two tables that filter against each other, I would like the second table to be blank until a value is selected in the first table.  Right now the data for each table is stored in two queries related by one column in each.

 

Currently, I am using a measure to check cross filtering:

Measure = if(ISCROSSFILTERED(Table[ColumnToBeFiltered]), "Y", "N")

 

I have applied this measure to "Visual level filters" in my second table with: Show items when the value:, is, "Y"

 

Right now, the second table is always blank, regardless is the measure returns  "Y" or "N"  - I have checked that the measure does return the correct value by placing it in a card. 

 

I would like for the second table to populate when the measure returns "Y", but so far I can't get that to work.

 

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

@jvince,

I create a measure using your DAX in the second table and everything works well. Please review the following screenshots. Could you please share dummy data of your two tables?

Hello Lydia,

 

Thank you for your response.

 

I used your example and it worked perfectly. Given that your example is almost identical to mine - I wasn't sure why it didn't work until I used ISFILTERED in the place of ISCROSSFILTERED and it worked perfectly.
