Adding Relationship kills results, Why does this relationship break things?

I have a table visual that pulls data from Budgets.  When I create a relationship to  Accounts, that visual goes blank.  It shouldn't.

There are perfect matches between the two columns being related.  They are the same data type.  If I create a calculated column to LOOKUPVALUE() the data exactly as the relationship would, it works fine.  If I use that calculated column in a relationship, it fails the same way.

I have trimmed this model down to just these two tables.  I have two inactive relationships, The one I want and the one based on the calculated column.  Making either one Active breaks the visual.

This seems to be a no brainer to me, this should just work.  Can someone tell me what I am missing here?

The issue is not the relationship it is the filters you have set.  Your dataset does not contain any rows that have the combination of Account[account] in (8170,8175), Budget[budegt ID] = 13 and budget_name = 2025.

 

When I look at your data for rows for those accounts and those budget IDs all of the budget names are blank which is why your table is blank.
