Comparing data from two slicers

[Omega]

Hi,

I've checked multiple videos and posts on the same topic but I'm unable to reach the result I'm looking for. Basically, I have a product master that has item codes and brand, along with a sales table at item customer level. I want to compare 2 selected brands at customer level, where the user will choose 2 different brands from 2 different slicers. 

Steps I took:

1. Connected my product master with sales table using item as key
2. Created a seperate brand table from the product master with no relationships with any table
3. Create a measure: 

Calculate ( sum (sales), filter (Product master, Product Master [Brand] in {selectedvalue (Brand [Brand])})​

• Selected Brand from first slicer (Brand column from product master) and Brand from 2nd slicer (Brand from brand table

The challenging I am facing is that my measure keeps getting me the total sales of brand 1 selection instead of brand 2. 

Please assist.

@Omega hmm SELECTEDVALUE could have worked but the core is to remove the filter from the product table. TREATAS is basically filtering the product table. Also, TREATAS would work in case you have multiple brands selected whereas SELECTEDVALUE only works if a single value is selected which might be ok in your case.

@Omega for brand 2 sales you need to do this

Brand 2 Measure = 

CALCULATE ( 
SUM ( Table[Sales] ), 
ALL ( Product ), 
TREATAS ( VALUES ( BrandTable[Brand] ), Product[Brand] )
)

Thanks a lot!!!!! 

Can you please elaborate why my selectedvalue didn't work? Also, how TREATAS played a role in fixing the data?
