Slicer not working as not unique

Hi Hi

 

I have this table:

 

FunctionLocation
1A
2A
1B
3B
4C

 

Wanting to create slicer.

 

However it seems like the Function and Location is not working well as it is not unique.

 

Any guides?

HI @jinweitan,

What type of issues that you faced, can you please explain more clear?

How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly
AFAIK, normally power bi use 'AND' logic to link filters, if you want to achieve other types of logic or filter effects, you can't directly use default filter features to achieve these requirements.

Not very clear on error. Function and Location should work as slicers.
