If you need to filter Presents table with Department table, you need USERELATIONSHIP to temporally activate their relationship, the code it like this:

CALCULATE(

    [],

    USERELATIONSHIP(a column from Department, a column from Presents) 

)

Column = CALCULATE([],USERELATIONSHIP('DEPARTMENT'[Department Name],Presents[dept_name]))
 
BUT getting error

by [], i mean a measure or an expression resulting a scalar value, like SUM() or COUNT()
