Slicer without relationship

Hello everybody,

 

I have this data model and its relationships with the respective specific functions. I would like to have columns Column Filter 1, Column Filter 2, Column Filter 3, as a visual slicer for tables 2 and 3.

 

How can I do this?

Adding the slicer directly to some tables will not work because of the relationship you already have.

As the virtual relationship, using the function USERELATIONSHIP(<columnName1>,<columnName2>), didn't work either.

Slicers fed by disconnected tables are a valid design concept.  Use measures to retrieve the current slicer value and then compute the required result from the data model based on that selection.
