Slicer to Exclude
Anonymous ,
Ok, I see.
In that case, I would create a [groupID] column by merging the [ID] and [DayID] fields in the unsummarised table ('table').
Then reference this table to create your summarised table ('summTable') by grouping on [ID], [DayID], [groupID], and SUM[Amount].
Send to model and relate table[groupId] to summTable[groupID]. Change relationship filter direction to BOTH.
Use table[Type] as your slicer field, summTable[Amount] (bins) as your X axis, and COUNTROWS(summTable) as your frequency measure on Y axis.
*NOTE* Ensure you understand the behaviour of this model setup. Using an unsummarised dimension to filter summarised data may give you unexpected results i.e. the single [Type]s selected in the slicer will output entire summarised groups, not just values specifically related to that [Type].

Super UserHi Anonymous ,
The simplest way to do this:
Do not summarise your table and keep all the fields.
Create a measure: SUM(yourTable[Amount]).
Put [ID], [DayID], and your new measure into your visual.
Set up your [Type] slicer with the 'Select All' option on, and turn off 'Multi-select with CTRL' option. Then the end user can select all slicer values and deselect the one(s) they don't want.

Hi Pete,
Unfortunately I can't do that as I have to make a histogram out of the summarised table.

Hi Anonymous ,
The unsummarised table structure will still work fine for a histogram, just put only [ID]and [DayID] on the axis and use your measure for Values. Alternatively, you can right-click on fields in the Fields list and select 'New group' to bin your values however you like.
Perhaps I'm misunderstanding your use case?

Hi BA_Pete,
So there's 2 things I want to do.
1. I want to be able to filter with the summarised table with 'Type' using a slicer based of the original table, as showcased above.
2. Based on the sumarised table, I want to make a histogram with 'Amount' bins on the x-axis and frequncy on the y-axis ( which comes by placing the 'Amount' in the values section). I also want to be able to filter using 'Type' from the original table.
