Help needed Relative Date Slicer

Hello, would really appreciate your help with this.

I have two separate reports using a common csv file. 

Within one of them, I have a date slicer, relative date, working as expected. 

In the other using the same field I cannot get the slicer working the same way. 

 This one is working as expected displaying the last 20 days relative to the rest of the fields.

This is the 2nd report - it shows each instance of each of the last 20 days

I have been seaching for differences between the reports and the fields and cannot find it !

Would very much appreciate a pointer 🙂

you may have a bad join between 2 tables. usually when you see data duplicating like that its becasue the join for the view you are trying to create is contradictive of another join to that same table.

 

there are ways around this but in some instances its easier to duplicate the 2 tables you are using to create a different join for the new view you are trying to create. Its not optimal but its a work around.
