I've combined 2 datasets into one for a map in Power BI. Lets call them People and Centers. I've added a column called IsPerson, setting it to either 1 or 0 based on the dataset.
Here's a sample of a table I created for testing. Value1 represents my InPerson column that I created in the datasets.
Table 2 = {
(1, "Red", "Car", , ,),
(1, "Blue", "Truck", , ,),
(1, "Red", "Motorcycle",,,),
(1, "Blue", "Car",,,),
(0,,,"Group 1","County A", "Some Center Value"),
(0,,,"Group 1", "County B","Center only value"),
(0,,,"Group 2", "County A", "Center value goes here")
}
I want slicers to be able to filter Value 2 and Value 3 for people. Then other slicers will filter Value 4 and Value 5 for Centers.
If I filter on "Red" and "County A", I want rows 1,3,5, and 7 in the results.
If I filter on "Red" and "Motorcycle", I want rows 3,5,6, and 7.
"Blue", "Group 2", I want rows 2 and 7.
"Group 2", I want rows 1,2,3,4, and 7.
Any ideas?
@TCavins , You need to create independent tables with distinct values value 2 and value 3 and use them in slicer and then create measure like this and use it value 2 and value 3 or original table
countrows(filter(Table, Table[Value2] in values('value 2'[Value 2]) || Table[Value 3] in values('value 2'[Value3]) ) )

Would it be similar to this since I only want if it's selected?
@amitchandak I think I'm close. The following works if I have filtered either value 2 or 3 and filtered value 4 or value 5. Any other combinations don't seem to work.
I placed this measure on a visual level filter and set it = 1 but selected just "Blue" doesn't work. Selected "Blue" and "Car" doesn't work. "Blue" and "Group 1" works. "Blue", "Car", and "Group 1" works. Just "Group 1" doesn't work, etc.
MeasureFilter =
//COUNTROWS(FILTER('Table 2', 'Table 2'[Value2] IN ALLSELECTED(val2s[Value2]) || 'Table 2'[Value3] IN ALLSELECTED(val3s[Value3]) || 'Table 2'[Value4] IN ALLSELECTED(val4s[Value4])|| 'Table 2'[Value5] IN ALLSELECTED(val5s[Value5])))
IF(
(
(
SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Value2]) IN ALLSELECTED(val2s[Value2]) || NOT(ISFILTERED(val2s[Value2]))
)
&&
(
SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Value3]) IN ALLSELECTED(val3s[Value3]) || NOT(ISFILTERED(val3s[Value3]))
)
)
||
(
(
SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Value4]) IN ALLSELECTED(val4s[Value4]) || NOT(ISFILTERED(val4s[Value4]))
)
&&
(
SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Value5]) IN ALLSELECTED(val5s[Value5]) || NOT(ISFILTERED(val5s[Value5]))
)
),
1,
0
)
Initial testing of the following seems to work:
MeasureFilter =
IF(
(SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Value1]) = 1 && OR(
NOT(ISFILTERED(val2s[Value2])) ,
SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Value2]) IN ALLSELECTED(val2s[Value2])
)
&&
SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Value1]) = 1 && OR(
NOT(ISFILTERED(val3s[Value3])) ,
SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Value3]) IN ALLSELECTED(val3s[Value3])
)
)
||
(
SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Value1]) = 0 && OR(
NOT(ISFILTERED(val4s[Value4])) ,
SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Value4]) IN ALLSELECTED(val4s[Value4])
)
&&
SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Value1]) = 0 && OR(
NOT(ISFILTERED(val5s[Value5])) ,
SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Value5]) IN ALLSELECTED(val5s[Value5])
)
)
,
1,
0
)
When I apply this measure as a filter to a ESRI map that has a large amount of points, I do not get the as many records as I should. I am only seeing a handful of points where I should see a few hundred. Using the same data and same filter with a table displaying the data, I get the number of rows that I expect.
Any thoughts?
