filter table with keywords from another table

I have table A with many columns sales, zones, products, dates, seller, etc. but in the seller column there are zones where there are 2 or 3 sellers.
For example:

SELLER
Vendedor 1
Vendedor 1 / Vendedor 2
Vendedor 3
Vendedor 1 / Vendedor 2 / Vendedor 3
Vendedor 2

In table B I have the list of sellers:

SELLER
Vendedor 1
Vendedor 2
Vendedor 3

I would like to be able to filter by the list of table B and that all the tables and graphs that are made from table A are filtered by the seller that I select from table B. I hope you can help me.

Hi,

Using the Query Editor, split the first table by rows.  Then create a relationship (Many to One and Single) from the first table to the second one.
