Sorry for the basic question.  I am trying to learn the measure flow. I have a table that contains several items

PCB

PS

CABLES

COVER

LEDs

The following measure helps to identify the items

 

IF (CONTAINS(Installers,Installers[Product Name],"PCB"),"these are the pcb found","not pcb")

 

However, it displays all other “not pcb” items.  How do I display only the PCB items.

Hi , @BEC_100 

According to your description, you just want to show the data contains "PCB".

Here are the steps you can refer to :

vyueyunzhmsft_0-1675128186172.png

(1)We can click "New Measure" to enter this:

Flag = var _name =  MAX('Table'[Name])
return
IF( CONTAINSSTRING(_name,"PCB") ,1,0)

(2)Then we can put the measure on the "Filter on this visual" and configure it and then we can meet your need:

If this method does not meet your needs, you can provide us with your special sample data and the desired output sample data in the form of tables, so that we can better help you solve the problem.

Thank you for your time and sharing, and thank you for your support and understanding of PowerBI!

Make the following change

Before:
IF (CONTAINS(Installers,Installers[Product Name],"PCB"),"these are the pcb found","not pcb")

After:
IF (CONTAINS(Installers,Installers[Product Name],"PCB"),"these are the pcb found")

yes, of course.

What I get with the measure is 

PCB375893These are the PCB found
PS465Not pcb
CABLES4567Not pcb
PCB45786These are the PCB found
LEDs8923Not pcb

 

I would like to display only PCB items

PCB375893These are the PCB found
PCB 45786These are the PCB found
