Keep specific rows in table visual

Hey all,

 

Is there a way to keep specific rows in a table visual no matter what you filter on?
In my case I have a Bill of Material build with multiple levels which means a level 1 item could contain multiple level 2 items etc.

I would like to filter for "Repair" parts (see screenshot) which are marked with "X" but keep the bill of material structure the same and always show me level 0, 1 and 2.

 For example in the screenshot I would filter for "X" within "Repair" (with a slicer) and the table should show me all lines for level 0, 1 and 2 as well as the two lines within level 4 (the ones with the x).

 

I this somehow possible?

Hey @MFelix ,

Thanks for your answer. The data structure is just a table. Same as shown in the screenshot above

HI @ManuelGeiger ,

 

Add a table for the slicer:

Try the following measure:

Repair Filter =
VAR temptalbe =
    FILTER (
        SUMMARIZE (
            ALL ( 'Table'[Serial number], 'Table'[Repair] ),
            'Table'[Serial number],
            'Table'[Repair]
        ),
        'Table'[Repair] = "X"
    )
VAR SerialNumber =
    DISTINCT ( SELECTCOLUMNS ( temptalbe, "SerialNumber", 'Table'[Serial number] ) )
RETURN
    SWITCH (
        SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Repair Slicer'[Repair] ),
        "Yes", IF ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Serial number] ) IN SerialNumber, 1 ),
        "No", IF ( NOT ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Serial number] ) IN SerialNumber ), 1 ),
        1
    )

Use the measure has a filter on the table and select has is not blank:

Hi  @ManuelGeiger ,

 

For this you need to create a measure that allows you to make the filter accordingly, something that will add to all the level the X.

 

How is your data structured, are you using a parent child hierarchy or a flat table?
