RLS: view data of specific department & organisation total

Hello all. Iโ€™ve succesfully created a report which filters data & visuals by the current user and the department she or he works for. That all works great.

 

But, I wish to expand the dax-query: a user should not only see data concerning her or his department, but also the data of the entire organisation. But not the data of other departments!

 

Iโ€™m wondering how I can achieve this.

 

Iโ€™ve included a snippet with the formula I now use for the RLS-setup:

RLS.PNG

Itโ€™s partially Dutch, so:

โ€œMedewerkerโ€ = employee

โ€œOrg_eenheid_naamโ€ = department

โ€œwerk_emailโ€ = email address

 

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

 

Best regards,

 

Wilco Loth

You need OLS for that, not RLS.  You can kinda fake OLS by creating aggregate tables (with the data for the entire org but not broken down by department) which you then slap the extra RLS rules on.
