Match against multiple criteria, ignoring filter etc...

Hi everyone,

I have been going nuts trying to figure this one out - any thoughts would be most welcome...

I have my sample data below and attached in a screen shot, my source data is on the left, what I'm trying to produce is on the right.

Brief explanation:

I insert a filter and select 'Leo', the results I want are as shown. Basically, I want to see who else bought something on the same day from the same location. I've shown the results in what looks like a pivot table style, but I'm not wedded to the idea.

I tried doing a pivot table (is there a way to make all the collapsed rows auto expand???), but this didn't work as when I filtered the customer name, it then stopped showing the other names in the results...help please...

May be this

=If(GetSelectedCount(Customer) = 1, Only({<[Purchase Date] = p([Purchase Date]), Customer = e(Customer)>} Customer), Customer)

Hi Sunny,

Sorry for the late reply - I'm currently using my Apple Mac so can't check your solution with Qlik, but your formula seems to do the trick - much appreciated.
