Dynamic filtering with CSV

Hi guys,

 

i have an article table in the service with revenue numbers per SKU. 

 

Now the sales team wants to filter the table for different SKUs. They have the SKUs in a CSV file. The SKUs may change daily. 

 

What could be a good solution so that sales could use a CSV file with the SKUs and Power BI filters the report down to the SKUs in the CSV file?

 

I must not necessarily be a CSV file in the end. We could supply the SKUs also in other ways. The whole point is that we need Power BI to filter the report for a list of different SKUs that we don't want to select all manually with the SKU filter in the Dashboard.

 

Best

Henrik

@Anonymous The only way I've seen of how to accomplish this is by using a custom visual. The "Filter by List" by Devscope is a certified custom visual and allows you to past in a list of values and the report will filter down to that list.
