Use Filter based on Columns

Hello, 
I have a report with a dataset containing a column with values:
True

False

Other

 

I wish to create a filter with values:

True = True + Other

False = False + Other

 

any suggestions would be highly appreciated,

Thanks!

If you are planning to use the filter on a measure you ca use the following:

 

Measure = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]), 'Table'[ColumnName]="TRUE" || 'Table'[ColumnName]="Other")

You should be able to do that in the Filters area of your visual (or report or page). If you want a DAX filter, that would be:

 

FILTER('Table',[Column]="True" || [Column]="Other")
