tmendoza, there is no setting as such. I'm wondering if you run the query in the backend using SSMS or other tool with the same slicer value, does it work? I'm wondering if there is some issue at the source that the query is not returning the data.

    Just checked. Backend is working fine. The data is also returned at the power query editor level and report view. The break specificaly happens once a slicer selection is made using the bound parameter. From what I can see, I'm using the right format for it.

    let
    Source = Sql.Database("ABCD.Server.com", "Database",
    [Query=
        "
        
            SELECT *
            FROM dbo.vPLGL_ISDashboard
            WHERE Period = " & Number.ToText(fiscal_period)]
    )
in
    Source
