    cgrisham,

     

    I have tested it on my locla environment, I can get the same results as yours. Based on my research, this is the default setting for SSAS directquery model.

    Thank you for your understanding.

Appreciate the response back . Frustrating to here there isn't a way to change this behavior as importing is not always the most feasible. The other wrok arounds I've been using are adding measures to my Models that do this action, either using SELECTEDVALUE or FIRSTNONBLANK and LASTNONBLANK.
