    Hi,

    I solved a problem in this way:

    I created a copy of my data source in power BI, then filtered one of my sources based on contact_field_7 and filtered the copy of my source based on contact_fileld_3 and join them based on unique identifier. 

    It worked fine for me:)

Hi Anonymous,

 

Now customer question is this: number of professors based on their gender!  If I fieldter custom_field_id to contact_field_3, then I have no way to filter custome_field _id  to contact_field_7.

 

Could you please provide more description about the quoted message? Based on above table, what structure do you want to convert to?

 

Regards,

Yuliana Gu

Hi,

 

I want to filter contact_field_7='Cluster Co-LEad' and contact_field_3='male.

contact_field_7 and  contact_field_3 keep different information about one person(in this casse person's role and gender'). But they are fetched as  different values of field'custom_field_id'. How can I apply this filter(contact_field_7='Cluster Co-Lead' and contact_field_3='male.)?

 

Regards,

Tooba
