Measure not affected by Filter

I have a measure with the following code: Total Containers = sum('Booking List'[Containers]). It isn't affected by any filters I apply for the visuals, the amount stayed the same.

Hi @smallfires0628 

You can use crossfilter() function.

e.g The column between the tables to connect is named a.

Total Containers =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Booking List'[Containers] ),
    CROSSFILTER ( 'Booking List'[a], 'table'[a], BOTH )
)

Hi @smallfires0628 

Please use REMOVEFILTER in your measure
Like (say you are using Product name in your slicer and you want to turnoff the filter)
so your measure like

 

Total Containers = Calculate(sum('Booking List'[Containers]),REMOVEFILTERS(YourTable[Product]))

Hi, @smallfires0628 

 

check your table 'Booking List' or slicer feild table contains any relationship

if contains then check direction of relationship of both table

 

if 'Booking List' or slicer feild table not contain relationship then your slicer not affect on any visual in report

It has a one to many relationship with another table (the 1 is on the Booking List side) and it has a single cross filter direction. It doesn't have a relationship with any of the filters table like the date table. But the table it's connected to has a relationship to the filters table.
