I have a multi choice column where users can enter all the departments that are important to their project.
but, when made a slicer, it gives me entries of multiple departments as 1 item. How can I split them out?
End goal, the selection will show any of the departments that have bene chosen.
IE slicer
Sales
Receiving
HR
HRSales
ReceivingSales
I did have to extract the values in the power query. current formula
= Table.TransformColumns(#"Extracted Date", {"DEPARTMENT", each Text.Combine(List.Transform(_, Text.From)), type text})ty
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @nerdyplayer ,
Consider adding delimiters when combining text:
= Table.TransformColumns(#"Extracted Date", {"DEPARTMENT", each Text.Combine(List.Transform(_, Text.From),","), type text})
Next you can split it by ",":
