Creating relationship with both same date format

Dear PBI gurus,

 

I'm trying to establish relationship with 2 date columns in from separate 2 tables. Both has same format. I would like to relate both these dates column so when I set the slicer on a monthly or yearly basis, it can able to populate data accordingly from both column. 

 

Every time I'm trying to create a relationship it breaks the slicer that I have set. I've set a slicer on yearly data (2019, 2020) and after I set the relatipnship the slicer break.

 

How can I achieve this?

 

Many thanks.

the easiest way would be to create a new Calendar table, and creating 1:many relationships to your data tables. This way when you create a slicer based on the Calendar table it will propagate the filter to both of them
