I have 2 tables. Table A has list of employees and how much leave they have. Table B has a list of some of the names but only those that have agreed to a certien condition. They are linked via a employee id number. I cant work out how to filter table A based on them being listed in table B. Do i need to write a calculate formula in table A or can i filter them?

@madashelliam You need to ensure there is active relationship between table A and B via power bi relationship view and filtering will work automatically for you. When you create relationship in power bi ensure cross-filter direction is set to Both and this will filter both table based on selection of another. Just like shown below,
@madashelliam If you have difined relationship between table a and table b, then you can use a slicer visual to filter the employees in table a. Add a slicer to your report, and drag employeeID into Field of the slicer, then you can filter the the employees in table a.

Hi, I am doing something similar with a similar problem-
So I want to create a filter based on the data in the table I am linking to. That second table contains a bunch of other options but I just want to have options to filter by what is in the first table.
Example:
Table 1: EE ID's (count = 5)
Table 2: EE Demo Information (count = 1000)
I want to throw a slicer on the visualization so I can filter those 5 EE' ID's by their state for example. But when I do the state slicer I have all 50 options instead of their 5 states. Is there anyway around this?
