    Ok, I have managed to test this.

    Create a measure for to exclude each slicer selection. In this example:

    Exclude Channel =
IF (
    ISFILTERED ( 'Exc Channel'[Channel] ),
    COUNTROWS (
        EXCEPT ( VALUES ( FactTable[Channel] ), VALUES ( 'Exc Channel'[Channel] ) )
    ),
    1
)

    Exclude Item =
IF (
    ISFILTERED ( 'Exc Item'[Item] ),
    COUNTROWS ( EXCEPT ( VALUES ( FactTable[Item] ), VALUES ( 'Exc Item'[Item] ) ) ),
    1
)

    Exclude REF =
IF (
    ISFILTERED ( 'Exc REF'[REF] ),
    COUNTROWS ( EXCEPT ( VALUES ( FactTable[REF] ), VALUES ( 'Exc REF'[REF] ) ) ),
    1
)

    Add these measures to the filters for the visual in the filter pane and set the value to greater or equal to 1:

    to get:

Hi PaulDBrown Thank you so much for the reply.
I think it works with single fact table-In my case I've multiple fact tables.
Any Idea/hint for multiple fact tables?

You can create the measures referencing the dimension tables instead of the fact table and use the dimension table fields in the visuals

     PaulDBrown Thanks-but when I tried with dimension table the logic was not working

      Using my previous example, these measures work with dimension tables:

      The model

      Exclude Dim Channel =
IF (
    ISFILTERED ( 'Exc Channel'[Channel] ),
    COUNTROWS (
        EXCEPT ( VALUES ( 'Dim Channel'[dChannel] ), VALUES ( 'Exc Channel'[Channel] ) )
    ),
    1
)

      Exclude Dim Item =
IF (
    ISFILTERED ( 'Exc Item'[Item] ),
    COUNTROWS (
        EXCEPT ( VALUES ( 'Dim Item'[dItem] ), VALUES ( 'Exc Item'[Item] ) )
    ),
    1
)

      Exclude Dim REF =
IF (
    ISFILTERED ( 'Exc REF'[REF] ),
    COUNTROWS ( EXCEPT ( VALUES ( 'Dim REF'[dREF] ), VALUES ( 'Exc REF'[REF] ) ) ),
    1
)

      The visual is created with the fields from the dimension tables
