How could I show what multiple filters are selected on a report page?
There are date filters and categorical filters.
I want the label to show everything that currenlty selected at al times.. and "ALL" when everything is selected.
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Anonymous,
You may learn to use ISFILTERED Function inside the IF Function.

I would use a measure structured something like this:
Filters Selected = IF ( ISFILTERED ( MyTable[MyColumn] ), CONCATENATEX ( FILTERS ( MyTable[MyColumn] ), MyTable[MyColumn], ", " ), "ALL" )
The reason for using FILTERS is because it returns direct filters on the specified column, as opposed to VALUES which would return the values visible in a column incorporating cross-filtering from other columns.

Must have missed the actual solution somehow. No doubt this is great advice, but something a bit more detailed and specific might actually be helpful.

How would you tweak this code if you wanted to add a second filter/slicer?
Thank you for sharing such an elegant solution.
Can you think of an equally elegant solution to incorporate an "All Except" rule? For example, I could have a filter with upto 30 different objects, and it could be I want to include all other than 2 of them. In this case it would be preferential to have the measure return "All Except AAA and BBB".
What do you think?
Something along these lines
Filters Selected (All Except version) = IF ( ISFILTERED ( MyTable[MyColumn] ), VAR ExcludedValues = EXCEPT ( ALL ( MyTable[Column] ), FILTERS ( MyTable[MyColumn] ) ) RETURN "All Except " & CONCATENATEX ( ExcludedValues, MyTable[MyColumn], ", " ), "ALL" )
This would return "All Except AAA, BBB, CCC,..." without an "and" between the last two items.
To include an "and" between the last two items would require a bit more logic: concatenating all but the last excluded item, followed by "and <last item>". Post back if you need help on that aspect.
