How to create slicer/button for different years?

I have a spreadsheet with projects that have budgets over multiple years.

Example:

Project Name2022202320242025
Project 110,00015,00010,000 
Project 225,000 15,00010,000

How can I create some buttons for the years i.e. 2022, 2023, etc. and when I click on a particular year button it will popultate the table with only the projects that have budget in that specific year?

 

Thanks for all your help!

Quick question on this. I added a new column to my data source. And when I add info into all the cells of the new column is it missing in the data model for a lot of them. Do I need to un-pivot and repivot with the new column added? How can the data in this new column to show up in all the cells of the data model?

I see Unpivoted Columns in the Applied Steps, but then what are you doing with the Renamed Columns? What columns are you renaming?? Is it the Attribute Column?

If you unpivot the columns "by default" column names will be
1. Attribute->Year
2. Value->Budget

I just renamed it to provide a meaningful name. So, it is easy for you to identify the column.

 

Thanks,
