Slicer for different columns on different tables

I need to create a way to slice pursuits my company has done based on if they are completed, cancelled, or in progress. The problem is that the criteria for completed and cancelled is on one table, and the criteria for in progress is on another, and uses a completely different criteria. They have a relationship via the customer # Column.
Complete/Cancel Table example:

Customer #Group
555Complete
999Complete
6543Cancelled
444Cancelled
324Complete
456Cancelled

 

In Progress table example, in progress is designated as being in the future, for now I have a calculated column (After Date) that gives a 1 for in the future (meaning in progress) and a 0 for in the past (completed or cancelled:)

Customer #Completed DateAfter Date
11112/31/20211
3241/3/20200
3337/20/20211
4444/28/20200

I need to be able to slice the customers based off of the pursuit status, slicer choices example:

Completed
Cancelled
In Progress

Thanks for any advice!

Hi,

In the In Progress Table, create another column called Group (same spelling as in the first table).  Then append the 2 tables.  Now use the Group column for slicing.

Hi @ABR002 , not sure if I understand what you are trying to do, but if the two tables are related by one column, then you could merge the two tables in Power Query, and then you could pull the slicers out of the one combined table.
Let me know if you have any questions.

If this solves your issues, please mark it as the solution, so that others can find it easily. Kudos 👍are nice too.
