Person | Salary | City | Job | Hair Colour | Gender | Favorite Dish |
James | 100 | Boston | Clerk | Black | Male | Hamburger |
Franc | 120 | New York | Clerk | Brown | Male | Salmon |
Cassady | 140 | New York | Lawyer | Black | Female | Salmon |
Nathalie | 150 | Boston | Lawyer | Brown | Female | Hamburger |
The table above is supposed to represent a very large table with far more rows and possible values. For simplicity the above one is used.
I want to summarize "Salary" and be able to slice it by "City", "Job", "Hair Colour", "Gender" and "Favorite Dish", but I don't want a heriarchy. How do I do this?
I.e. I want the slicer to look this way:
City | |
Boston | |
New York | |
Job | |
Clerk | |
Lawyer | |
Hair Colour | |
Black | |
Brown | |
Gender | |
Male | |
Female | |
Favorite Dish | |
Hamburger | |
Salmon |
Reason for I want it this way is because there is no obvious heriarchy between the columns "City", "Job", "Hair Colour", "Gender" and "Favorite Dish", and there may be many more columns that I want to use to slice.

Hi @SF_2024 ,
I think you can use Field Parameter to group the slicers you want to select.
Then I use another slicer to contain the slicers you want to select.
Finally when I select any selection and the slicer will give the correct answer.

Hi,
You can create a slicer for each column and that way you don't have a hierarchy.

Thank you for your reply! A problem is that if there are like 20 factors, it takes a lot of space on your screen, which is why I tried to avoid using 1 slicer per factor.
Is there any way to "group" the 20 slicers such that I click one drop-down that shows the 20 slicers?
I understand I could use bookmarking, but I am trying to avoid bookmarks since there is already a lot of bookmarks.
