Problems with matrix after using advanced query filters

i am trying to filter my sales table in query advanced filtering.  i want to only see accounts >=1 AND <=10, OR 12.

 

when i do this, i can load the filtered file and see the selected accounts fine.  however when i create a matrix, with any field, it shows blank reaults as if the table is empty?

 

if i revert back to a full file; all works fine?

I’m not quite sure how you apply the filter, but you can try to use CALCULATETABLE Function (DAX) to get the expected result.

Assuming we have a simple table like below.

We can use following DAX formula to create a new calculated table to filter the accounts.

Table2 = 
CALCULATETABLE (
    Table1,
    Table1[Accounts] >= 1
        && Table1[Accounts] <= 10
        || Table1[Accounts] = 12
)

Then drag the filtered columns in the new created Table2 into Matrix fields.

Thanks, I will for sure use CALCULATETABLE in the future now!

 

I was using the Number filter from within Query, you drop down a field and one option is number filter, then I choose between, then choose 'advanced' to put in my filter conditions. 

 

I am not sure what I did different, but it works AND shows results in my table/matrix.

 

Thanks again!
