How to build dynamic ranges to filter on via the filter pane

Hi all,

 

I am trying to achieve a situation where a user has a table with the following columns (more in actuality but for this purpose these three will suffice): College and Subgroup are multi-select slicers where the table will be filtered accordingly.

 I would like the user to be able to use the filter pane to narrow down the selection of "EnrollmentCount" based on pre-fabricated bins of varying ranges (these bins and ranges are determined at the subgroup level outside of Power BI, so University 1 has 3 bins for female, 3 different bins for male, etc.) When placing the "range" column on the filter pane, there are two options: a page-level filter and a visual-level filter (on the table). It seems like using the visual-level filter is the option here, because it reacts with the selections in the slicer pane (see the two images below):

However, when I try and select mulitple subgroups, say male and female, you get something like this:

Is there anyway to dynamically create these ranges within power bi that would react to the choosing of multiple subgroups, or any other idea on how to achieve this filtering by a set of binned values? Here is a link to the report on Google Drive, hopefully it works. If not, I can post the sample data file.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

@amitchandakThank you for your reply! I have reviewed your proposed solution, but I don't believe this will help in my case. Firstly, the values you have for creating the bins are not exaclty dynamic in the way that I was looking for. Also, since these are measures, I don't believe they will work properly in the filter pane.
