Role Level Security on Multiple Table

I am trying to filter for roles using two tables that are both hierarchies. My issue is that I need them to perform an 'or' function and not an 'and' function. 

 

For example, say I had a sales org and a location hierarchy. I would like to see all of John Doe's sales and all of Canada's sales. I can only seem to filter on John Doe's Canada sales.

    Hi ggipson,

     

    Current power bi only support to use "and" to link filters on different tables, I think you can post this to ideas forum.
    For your requirement, you try to enable these filters on sales table to filter the specificity records.

      Below is a sample of 3 tables. I want to have row level security based on both location and sales hiearchies. I want to filter the report for the role based on all of John Doe's sales and all of the Canada's Sales. This would include all of the bolded lines in the bottom table. It would include any sales at locations D & E and any sales by Employees 1, 2, & 3.
