    I can't subfilter/ have a dynamic filter in pivot talbe

    Hi Guys,

    I try to make this as clear as possible.

    First, the general situation: I have data about cars production, with different attributes. The most general attribute is the Sales Group [for example, Volkswagen, Tesla, General Motors, Daimler etc.]. The next subgroup would be the Car Brand. [for example, Volkswagen Group produces brands as Audi, VW and so on and so on]. The next subgroup is then the Regional model, which are all the models of the brand picked in the previous subgroup [for example Audi produces the models A1, A2, A3 and so forth]. I made a pivot table out of this and put the attributes described above as filters. [I attached a picture]

    Now to my problem: When I choose a Sales Group in my first filter [for example I chose Volkswagen Group], then in the next filter the car brands of all Sales Groups are being displayed in the choosing options of the filter. The same holds, when I want to choose a Regional Model; all regional models of all car brands are being displayed. What I want to accomplish is that when I chose a Sales Group, in the next filter I only want to see the Car brands belonging to that specific Sales Group as choosing options. The same must hold for the case when I chose the regional model.

    How can I get or create such a subfilter or dynamic filter? (I lack the proper vocabulary, since I don't exactly know how to call it.)


    Thank you very much in advance

    Best,

    your ftabetao

    Try using slicers instead of filters, and check the "Hide items with no data" option.
    let Source = #table({"Question","Thread", "User"},{{"Answered","Mark Solved", "Add Reputation"}}) in Source

    If I give you Power Query (Get & Transform Data) code, and you don't know what to do with it, then CLICK HERE

    Walking the tightrope between genius and eejit...
