The initial one I sent was just a simple table. I have an actual data model where I am looking to list all the products not bought by a customer.

Attached is my actual Data Model. How can I accomplish the same task in my data model. Attached are the sample XLS and qvw being used.

My data set is huge so I cant  do any aggregation on the front end.
