Data in table is not being filtered interactively based on a custom column in a chart

Hi All,

I have created a custom column that is looking at another column and chooses only 2 specific values (Yes, Pending), instead of the 3 available values,  please see below:

Column   = CALCULATE (
    COUNTA( Projects[PMAssigned]),
           ALL ( Projects[PMAssigned]),
        Projects[PMAssigned] = "Yes"
        ||Projects[PMAssigned] = "Pending" )

The code seems to work well. The problem is when i click this column in a clustered column chart. Below the chart, on the same page, I have a table. In the  table I have data containing some fields along with the PMAssigned field (the "vanilla" field from which im filtering data out in the custom field) , the data in the table is not being filtered interactively upon clicking the custom column in the chart. 

In order to have the data in the table  filtered out based on a column/value in the chart, I have to use the "Vanilla" column.

I want the data in the table to be filtered out interactively based on this custom column.

Is there anyway around it?

Thanks!
