Make rows appear in multiple filter values

Hello, I have the table "Projects" that I want to be able to filter by differents status. The problem I have is that the progression "Not Started" must appear when I select either "Not Active" and "Active" as well. I can't figure it out. Here's what I need.

 

A filter that shows

Not Active -->Not started

Active ---> Not Started and Ongoing

Finished ---> Over

All ---> Not Started, Ongoing and Over

Hello, the solution with many to many relationship didn't work. As soon as tried with my real data (thousand of rows), the filter wasn't working. However, I found a solution with the help of Chat GPT (it needed some tweaks though). 

 

The solution: You create a mesure that will be used as a filter in visual ( Show Row = 1) and you use the filter table values in the slicer. Here's the measure. Don't mind about the red everywhere, it is working (The fields in my real model have different names than in my example, that's why).  Thank you

@GuillaumeBDddd, solution is attached. It will work fine given the status table is very small, although many-to-many relationships are not recommended and should be avoided where possible.

@GuillaumeBDddd I would setup your Status table like the following and relate it to your Progression column in your other table:

StatusProgression
Not ActiveNot Started
ActiveNot Started
ActiveOngoing
FinishedOver
AllNot Started
AllOngoing
AllOver

 You could use Status column in a slicer and now everything should filter correclty.
