set Multiple values in visual filter

I have a user table where user is mapped to countries

UserCountryStateemail
ABCIN  
XYZ MH 
DDDMU  
DDDPU  

Based on user login email i get the associated country. Then this country user[country] is used in measure to check if it is equal to another country country[country] in visual filter with "Yes" and "No" option. The measure is set to Yes to show only applicable country data. This works fine for one to one mapping, but when a user is mapped to multiple countries i am getting multiple values passed error...Any solution, workaround would be appreciated.

Hi @powerbisach ,

 

Modify the measure like:

Measure = if(SELECTEDVALUE(Country[Country]) in VALUES(User[Country]),"yes","no")

Result would be shown as below.

v-jayw-msft - Perfect...Much appreciated....If possible could you please let me know how selectedvalue and values works differently and what to use when that will be helpful.

 v-jayw-msft - The 2 tables are disconnected. Your solution works when i set up a relationship between these 2 tables. When there is no relationship the visual shows no result. 

Hi @powerbisach ,

 

Modify the measure like:

Measure = if(SELECTEDVALUE(Country[Country]) in VALUES(User[Country]),"yes","no")

Result would be shown as below.

@powerbisach 

Do you also get "No" values when the statement doesn't return "Yes"?

Hi @powerbisach ,

 

Try use SELECTEDVALUE() function instead of VALUE() function.

Like:

if(selectedvalue(user[country])=selectedvalue(country[country]),"Yes",blank)

@powerbisach 

Depends a bit what kind of behavior you expect. Do you expect a Yes in the 'Country' table when one of the records in 'User' does have this [country] value? 

Selectedvalue = DDD
  
CountryCheck
INNo
MUYes
PUYes
blankNo

Like this?

 
 
 
 
 Yes...Based on user country field the visual should display details from country table related to it. This can not be done using RLS (due to business constraints) and need to apply visual filter only.

It's a simple formula applied in measure user country =
