Hi,
I'm using the PATH function in DAX to work out the hierarchy in an organsation, but as usual I have data quality issues which cannot be resolved in the source data. My HR table has invalid parent data eg.
| Emp Name | EmpID | Supervisor ID |
| Amir | 1 | 1 |
| Sharon | 2 | 1 |
| John | 3 | 4 |
John has an invalid Supervisor ID. How would I write DAX to create a new table where Supervisor ID is not in the EmpID column. My resulting table would as follows, ie without the row containing the invalid supervisor ID.
| Emp Name | EmpID | Supervisor ID |
| Amir | 1 | 1 |
| Sharon | 2 | 1 |
I should add I have 50k plus rows so something that's not hard coding the supervisorID would be great!
Thanks, Ben.

Create a new table:
New Table =
FILTER(
Table1,
Table1[Supervisor ID] IN ALL(Table1[EmpID])
)

Fantastic, thank you. One last question if I may, assuming my 1st table had 10 other columns, but I only wanted to return the 3 columns Emp Name, EmpId and Supervisor Id, how would I do that? Thanks again!!
