Line graphs show straight line and dates

Hello Everyone, I could use some help please.  I've attached a screenshot that shows how all of the lines are fixed, as well as on one of the graphs the date range extends into the future.  Can you ...

    Hi Josef,

     

    I think I figured out the blank chart issue.  I was drawing the slicer names from a table in access but the date type was "number".  I changed a few things and the data type is "short text" now and it seems to work.

     

    Thank you for all of your time!

Hi Josef,

Yes please see the relationships below.

I have Dates coming from the date table

and Properties coming from the Propeprty Info table

 

I am trying to graph actual vs budgeted Revenue, and Income and related measures for Revenue and Income on the line graphs.

 

Thank you!

Tammy

Hello,
what if you change the relationships here to Cross Filter?
 
 
Without a sample report, this is still pure guessing on my side.
BR,

    Thanks for keeping at this with me.  I started a new Power BI file and get the same result.  Curious though that when "Blank" is selected in the slicer the lines appear, but when I choose to slice it then both lines disappear.  I'm sorry, I don't know how to share this without violating work confidentiality rules.  I really appreciate all your help with this!
