How to get common data from selected value in slicer

 I have one table that contains business unit, client, sales.  I am trying to figure out if my selected business unit (slicer) shares the same client with other business units and get total of sales ...

    Hi Sha ,

     

    First of all, we can create a separate table to show the data, then we can use a measure in visual filter to filter it:

     

    TableToCompare = 'Table'

     

    HasSameClient = 
IF (
    AND (
        SELECTEDVALUE ( 'TableToCompare'[Client] ) IN DISTINCT ( 'Table'[Client] ),
        NOT SELECTEDVALUE ( TableToCompare[Bus unit] ) IN FILTERS ( 'Table'[Bus unit] )
    ),
    1,
    -1
)

     

     

     

    If it doesn't meet your requirement, Please show the exact expected result based on the Tables that we have shared.


    Best regards,

    Hi Sha ,

     

    We can use the variable to optimise the code, if you have any other questions, please kindly ask here and we will try to resolve it.

     

    # of Bus Units =
VAR SelectedBus =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Bus unit] )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'TableToCompare'[Bus unit] ),
        'TableToCompare'[Bus unit] <> SelectedBus
    )

     


    Best regards,

hi Sha 

it could be smth like measure

Measure = 
CALCULATE(
SUM('Table1'[Sales]);
FILTER(ALL('Table1';'Table1'[Client]=SELECTEDVALUE('Table1'[Client]) && 'Table1'[Business Unit]<>SELECTEDVALUE('Table1'[Business Unit]))
)

That didn't work, it just returns my selected business unit's sales.  I need to get all the Clients that also have sales in other business units.  Expecting to see something like this.  If I'm comparing to Bus unit 3, I would see something like this...

Client       Bus unit                      Sales

Name1    Bus Unit1                  $xxx

Name1    Bus Unit2                  $xxx

Name1    Bus Unit4                  $xxx

Name2    Bus Unit4                  $xxx

Name2    Bus Unit4                  $xxx

      I thought that was working.  But mine is doing something yours is not.  Mine is showing the selected value in the totals.  Your slicer is from Table? Top visual is where HasSameCliet = -1 and Bottom visual is where = 1?  Should I have a relationship in the model for the new table?

      The other thing that I have different, is I a have a date in Table and related to a date table.  Perhaps I need to relate the new table to the date table or change the measure?

       

      Thank you for you help.

        Hi Sha ,

         

        Sorry for that we forgot to put the sample pbix file in our previous post. The above visual comes from the origin table and the below is come from the copied table, we only applied the visual filter in the below visual. We did not set relationship between the two tables.
