Slicer that only shows user names in the other table

[DarylRob]

Hi, 

So I have two tables, one is my primary table RESULTS that is solely used for the report and this has "OwnerID" in it and then I have a USER table which i'm pulling the users name based on the OwnerID

When I create a slicer on Name from the USER table it gives me all names, not just those that are in the RESULTS table, how can I just show those names with an OwnerID in the RESULTS table..

Cheers,

Hi @DarylRob,

Currently, you can’t directly do this on your slicer. I'd like to suggest writing a measure formula and use on a slicer to achieve filter records.

formula =
VAR userList =
    ALLSELECTED ( Table2[UserName] )
RETURN
    IF ( SELECTEDVALUE ( Table1[UserName] ) IN userList, "Y", "N" )

Hi @DarylRob ,
You can put a filter on your visual which says OwnerID from USERS table is "Not Blank"
Steps: 
1- Select your visual and drag and drop the OwnerID field in the filters pane.
2- Select Advanced filtering and select is not blank option
3- Click on Apply

@DarylRob  Please accept it as a solution if this helps you. Thank you.
