Mapping suppliers with different categories

Hi,

I have a long list of suppliers with latitude and longitude and a category (Milk, Honey, Bread etc). The data is from an old Excel database where each supplier can be on multiple rows if they supply to different categories. For example Supplier X can supply both Milk and Honey and will have two records (rows). I want to map  ONLY suppliers delivering both Milk and Honey. How do I do this? 

KR,

M

  • I would proberbly make a calculated column in the dataset defining if the row is related to a company supplying both honey and milk. 

    CompanyProduceCategory
    Company 1HoneyMilk/Honey
    Company 1MilkMilk/Honey
    Company 2HoneyN/A
    Company 2WheatN/A
    Company 3HoneyMilk/Honey
    Company 3MilkMilk/Honey
    Company 4BreadN/A


    The calculated column would proberbly look somehting like this:

    Column =
    VAR Company = *Table'[Company]
    Return
    IF(
    AND(
    CALCULATE(
    COUNTROWS( 'Table' ),
    ALL('Table'),
    'Table'[Company] = Company,
    'Table'[Produce] = "Honey"
    ) > 0 ,
    CALCULATE(
    COUNTROWS( 'Table' ),
    ALL('Table'),
    'Table'[Company] = Company,
    'Table'[Produce] = "Milk"
    ) > 0 ),
    "Milk/Honey",
    "N/A"
    )

    What exactly do you mean by map here? Could you show the desired outcome somehow?

      I want to create a map where I only show a marker where a company deliveres both Milk and Honey (in the attached case the yellow). My problem is that a record occurs twice (two separate rows in excel) for for the yello company, once for Milk and once for Honey. In the attached example it shows all companies delivering either milk or honey
