Measure does not work with slicer/filter

Hi guys, 

 

I am new to PowerBi and have a question regarding the interaction of filters with measures. I have a slicer on the page called "TimestampHistory". It interacts with all visuals on the page but with two very simple custom measures: 

1. 

Active Measures =
DIVIDE(
    SUM('Database (hist)_Status'[Measure Operativ]);
    COUNTA('Database (hist)_Status'[MN-ID])
)
 
2. 
Weighted Degree of Achievement=
DIVIDE(
    SUM('DatabaseAkt (hist)'[Completed Days]);
    SUM('DatabaseAkt (hist)'[Duration in Days])
)
 
 
Now my question is whether I have to include the usage of said slicer into the measure formulas or if there is another workaround?
 
Thanks a lot in advance!

"I have a slicer on the page called "TimestampHistory"." - What are we selecting in this slicer? 

-

The two measures : are they on card visuals or part of tables/matrix? Please specify.

What is the expected result from selecting something in the slicer?

Can you provide a link to the pbix or at least a data model picture for starters?
