    You need to define the entire path of relationships and it seems that RELATED() function does not like the USERELATIONSHIP, so I have fixed it. Please check if this returns the expected results for technician:

    Technician = CALCULATE(SELECTEDVALUE(AaaUser[FIRST_NAME]), USERELATIONSHIP(WorkOrder[WORKORDERID],WorkOrderStates[WORKORDERID]), USERELATIONSHIP(WorkOrderStates[OWNERID], SDUser[USERID]), USERELATIONSHIP(SDUser[USERID], AaaUser[USER_ID]))

     

    UPDATE: suvechha if you are getting an error about single path, you will need to make the relationship between WorkOrder and WorkOrderStates a many to one relationship with single cross filter direction.

suvechha - Not great with the SQL, that is renaming the column within the query, correct? I don't know of way to do that other than to use SELECTCOLUMNS.

The most important parts are:
