Hi,
I'm trying to filter my results where the value of column A is "yes" or the value of column B is "yes". Can someone help with the query?
Edit: It's a view back to a database and won't let me create a calculated column. Is there another way to do this?
Thanks

Hi @scottjl ,
This is the data I created:
Here are the steps you can follow:
1. Create measure.
Measure =
IF(
MAX('Table'[priority])="Yes"||MAX('Table'[resources])="Yes",1,0)
Result:
Now it shows that all data exist. Measure marks the unqualified data as 0 and the qualified data as 1
2. Put measure into filter, set is = 1, and apply filter
3. Result:
Display the data that meet the requirements:
Best Regards,

You can apply a filter as follows
FILTER (
TABLE,
TABLE[COLUMN A] = "YES" || TABLE[COLUMN B] = "YES"
)

Sorry, newbie question, where do I go in desktop to apply that filter?
@scottjl
Can you explain what you are trying to acheive? Do you need a table as output or need to apply filtering inside a measure? Better provide some sample data and the expected results.

Sure. I have a gantt chart showing upcoming business opportunities that have a start and end date. The opportunity records in dynamics are all tagged priority "yes" or "no" and provide resources "yes" or "no". I want to only show the opportunities that are tagged priority "yes" or provide resources "yes". Priority and provide resources are 2 different columns in the table.
@scottjl
Basically, you will be having a measure to calculate a result that probably is used for conditional formatting based on the conditions you specified. you can incorporate the filter that I provided to apply the filter within your measure.

This is not possible from the filter pane. You might want to create a calculated column as OR([Column A]="yes",[Column B]="yes") and then filter on the calculated column
Add a custom column with this expression and then filter the new column on "Y"
if [Column A] = "yes" or [Column B] = "yes" then "Y" else "N"

Thanks Pat. It's a live database view so it won't let me add a new column. Can i do it with a measure?
