How to Create Table Visual from Measure??
- 1 year ago
Hi Txtcher ,
If you're trying to create a table visual that shows only the RS Cases that are backlogged (and not sent to Reopen), you don't need to build the entire logic inside a measure. Measures return scalar values, not tables — so they can't directly generate a table visual.
Here’s what you can do instead:
- Use a calculated table if you want to pre-filter the data model:
BackloggedCases = FILTER( 'RS Cases', 'RS Cases'[Status] = "CLOSED" && ISBLANK('RS Cases'[Reopen Date]) // or whatever field indicates it's not reopened )If you want to do it dynamically in a table visual, just:
- Add the columns you want from RS Cases (like ID, Status, Survey Date)
- Add a visual-level filter:
- Status = "CLOSED"
- Reopen Date is blank (or whatever field you use to track reopen)
If you still want to use a measure to highlight or flag backlog cases, you can write something like:
IsBacklog = IF( 'RS Cases'[Status] = "CLOSED" && ISBLANK('RS Cases'[Reopen Date]), 1, 0 )Then filter the table visual where IsBacklog = 1.
Let me know if you want help building a calculated column or table based on more complex logic.

Thank you! That was something new for me - creating a table. (Yes, I am very new to PBi.)
So how can I link a slicer that uses a field from the parent table? The newly created table (Backlog Cases) does not have a relationship with RS Cases (the parent table).
