Visual advanced filter multiple values

I have created a table visual to show a list of items that do not have a valid status. I have a list of valid statuses (A, D, N, S, O, and more) and want to show any item with anything other than the valid ones. On the visual advanced filtering, I can only have 2 (status is not A or status is not D).

 

Any help would be appreciated!

Hi @Anonymous,

 

You need an extra table (suppose it's 'ValidStatus') to list all valid statuses.

Create such a measure:

Measure =
IF (
    ISERROR (
        FIND (
            SELECTEDVALUE ( DataTable[Status] ),
            CONCATENATEX ( ValidStatus, ValidStatus[ValidStatus], "," )
        )
    ),
    0,
    1
)

Add this measure to visual level filters and set its value to 1.

Thanks Yuliana. I decided to create an additional column with a switch statement for each valid value and setting to 1 if valid or 0 if not. Then I could key off this column for my visual.

Thank you for replying quickly.

 

Here's a sample of my data:

ItmNbr   Status

123         A

456         D

789         X

 

Both A & D are valid statues. I would like to show in my report:

ItmNbr   Status

789          X

 

There is currently no table with valid status. Would it be beneficial to make one?
