Filtering a table in a cascading relationship

Hi everyone,

 

I'm having issues with filtering a table in a cascading relationship.

E.g., Table A has a slicer with dates and a 1-* relationship to table B. Table B has dates and id, with a 1-* relationship to Table C. Table C has ids. I want to filter C based on a date-range in table A.

 

How can this be done? When I try, my visualizations are all blank.

hi  @AlexKahler 

From your screenshot of relationship, it should works well.

I think the problem should be that

Master Date table is used DAX, so it will only have 12:00:00AM time for each date,

[Visit date & time] must have different time not just 12:00:00AM time for each date,

you just change the format of them to make them same.

So although you have create a relationship between them, but they are not same for each date.

Just add a date column for [Visit date & time]

Date = DATE(YEAR([Visit date & time]),MONTH([Visit date & time]),DAY([Visit date & time]))

Then use this column to create a relationship instead of [Visit date & time].

Now it should work well.

@AlexKahler , this relationship seems correct.  This should give data.

Can you share sample data and sample output in table format?

Unfortunately, I can't as the data is NDA.

 

I've taken a new screenshot of the actual relationship in Power BI.

This is what happens, when I filter the report. I made sure that the datapoints for the visualizations are the same tables as above.

And, in the tables, I can see that the date range is correct;

And in Master Date;
