Hi, Hoping someone can help whether this scenario is possible....and if so how to achieve it. I have a table that has comma seperated values in a single column (see Fruits table in Red below). ...

    Thanks but this didn't work as expected. When selecting all options it showed all rows when it should only show rows if all options were assigned in the Fruits column (comma seperated) to the row.

    However, I have managed to work it out.


    TABLES


    MEASURE

    Measure =
    VAR selValues = CONCATENATEX(VALUES(Slicer[Fruit]),Slicer[Fruit],", ",Slicer[Fruit],ASC)
    VAR selCount = COUNTROWS(ALLSELECTED(Slicer[Fruit]))
    VAR sTableselCount = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Table),Table[AssignedCount]=selCount)
    VAR sTableselValues = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Table),Table[Fruits]= selValues)
    VAR sResults = IF(sTableselCount>0 && sTableselValues >0,1)
    RETURN
    IF(NOT ISFILTERED(Slicer[Fruit]),0,sResults)



    Add the measure to the table filter as below

DTPBI Hey,
you can use a custom visual Text Filter to get exact match value as result.

 

 

Thanks,

Thanks, while this works it expects the users to type in the values comma seperated correctly. Fruits is an example but the actual values in our data are a lot longer
