Hi,
I have the following scenario -
1 master summary table with multiple rows, each row includes a type.
Multiple detail tables (1 per type), some containing a sub type, and some not. 1 type doesn't have a matching detail table. The rows in the detail tables use the same unique identifier as the corresponding row in the summary table.
Example
Summary table -
Identifier Desc Type
1 Row 1 A
2 Row 2 A
3 Row 3 B
4 Row 4 C
5 Row 5 D
6 Row 6 D
7 Row 7 E
Detail table Type A -
Identifier Sub Type
1 A-1
2 A-2
Detail table Type B -
Identifier Sub Type
3 B-1
Detail table Type C -
Identifier
4 No sub type
Detail table Type D -
Identifier Sub Type
5 D-1
6 D-2
there is no detail table for type E.
What I am trying to do is build a table that can be filtered on the sub type (amongst other filters) where appropriate - so:
Slicer selects sub type A-1 - list displays row 1 only.
Identifier Desc Type Sub Type
1 Row 1 A A-1
Slicer selects sub type D-1 - list displays rows 5 & 6 only.
Identifier Desc Type Sub Type
5 Row 5 D D-1
6 Row 6 D D-1
Slicer selects blank sub type - list displays rows 4 & 7 only
Identifier Desc Type Sub Type
4 Row 4 C
7 Row 7 E
Slicer has no select - list displays all rows.
Identifier Desc Type Sub Type
1 Row 1 A A-1
2 Row 2 A A-2
3 Row 3 B B-1
4 Row 4 C
5 Row 5 D D-1
6 Row 6 D D-1
7 Row 7 E
I'm new to Power BI, but wouldn't have any problem with SQL or SSRS. I'm restricted to using a supplier developed model - I can create new measures, but not new columns.
