Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Try to create a calculated table using dax

Table 2 = SELECTCOLUMNS(FILTER('Table',[Manager ID]<>BLANK()),"Fname",[emp Fname],"Lname",[Emp Lname])

Hi,

Where do you want the extraction to happen - a new table or a visual.  Should it be a calculated column or a measure?  Care to share more details????
