Creating Filter Pane for a Dimension, depending on the value of another Dimension

HBalazs — Mon, 20 Dec 2021 21:08:46 GMT

Hi folks,

I have the following dataset.

I would like to create a Filter Pane which allows the user to filter for the name of responsible Employees.

Project name	Employee	Employee Role
Project 1	Eddard	Creator
Project 1	Cathleen	Responsible
Project 2	Rob	Creator
Project 3	Jon	Creator
Project 3	Rob	Responsible
…	…	…

Thanks for any support!

This expression should do the trick:

=If([Employee Role] = 'Responsible', Employee)

Thanks for your input. The problem is that I would like to see all data related to the filtered projects.

E.g. if the user filters for 'Rob' as Responsible, I would like to see all information about Project 3 (the Creator as well).

From the dataset above, I created the following chart in the visualization:

Project name	Creator	Responsible
Project 1	Eddard	Cathleen
Project 2	Rob	-
Project 3	Jon	Rob
Project 4	-	Rob

For example the expression for column Responsible is: =Only({<[Employee Role]={'Responsible'}>} [Employee])

Now, I would like to put a filter pane above, where the user can filter for Responsibles.

E.g. if she filters for 'Rob', I would like to see Project 3 and 4.

If I use the suggested expression, it will only show Project 4, but not Project 3, where Rob is also Responsible, but the Creator is another employee...

😞
