    Thanks for the reply from bhanu_gautam , please allow me to provide another insight:

    Hi, Anonymous 

    Thanks for letting us know your user experience.  According to your case description, I do understand how frustrated you are now.
     

    Based on our current understanding of your needs, as you have measured, it is not possible to create a new computed table based on the values of the original table slicer. There are two main reasons for this:

     

    1.Unable to capture values for dynamic slicers: In a calculated table, you can't directly capture the values of another dynamic slicer.

     

    2.Recursion and cyclic dependency risks: Even if it can be implemented, this approach can easily lead to recursion, which can lead to the problem of circular dependency.
     

    So, my alternative is:
     

    First, copy the query to the data source directly in PowerQuery, and then modify the table according to your needs:
     

     

    Using the Queries pane - Power Query | Microsoft Learn

    Then, the table relationship is established in the desktop, so that the interaction between the two tables is realized:

    Create and manage relationships in Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

    Of course, if you have any new ideas, you are welcome to contact us.
