Common filters for visualizations using columns from different datasets
I imported three datasets into Power BI: ENRL_MODALITY, COURSE_FTE_SCH, FLG_DL_ENRL. All three datasets have the same column "Term", which has the same format. What I want to do is to pull different columns from different dataset to make different visualizations, but they all use the same filter "Term." I drag "Term" from ENRL_MODALITY onto the filter pane "Filters on all pages." But it only applies to the visualization that is using columns from ENRL_MODALITY. How should I make this Term filter universal to all visualizations, i.e., graphs using columns from COURSE_FTE_SCH and FLG_DL_ENRL.
This might be an easy question. I am pretty new to PBI. So thanks for any help!

Thanks. This works. But it looks like I can only manage relationship for one column at a time. What if I need to set up multiple filters: Term, Campus, College, etc. to apply to all three datasets? Thanks for any advice!
you can create active relationships only by one field.
for any other logic you should use USERELATIONSHIP function https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dax/userelationship-function-dax in your measures or column statements
