Need assistance on data slicer
Hello Everyone,
I have 4 data tables, 1 time intelligence table(calendar) where this table is connected to every other data tables.
I performed a calculated column called overall revenue based on all 4 tables. Used below DAX expression to calculate overall revenue.
SUM(DespatchReport[Amount])+SUM(ExportBillingReport[Amount])+SUM(FCL[TOTAL BILLING])+SUM(LCL[Total Revenue Generated])
After that I created a new table to create a slicer, and that new table is also connected to every other tables.
Below is expression I have used to create a new table,
WTYPE = FILTER(DISTINCT(UNION(SELECTCOLUMNS(DespatchReport,"Warehouse_type",[Warehouse_type]),
SELECTCOLUMNS(ExportBillingReport,"Warehouse_type",[Warehouse_type]),
SELECTCOLUMNS(FCL,"Warehouse_type",[Warehouse_type]),
SELECTCOLUMNS(LCL,"Warehouse_type",[Warehouse_type]))),NOT ISBLANK([Warehouse_type]))
My problem is I created the slicer based on new table created, I want to slice Eg. If I click on value 1 only that revenue should be filtered, but it is not doing so.
since I created a calculated column in LCL table, that value only shows. Other tables I cannot able to filter or visualize it.
Slicer values:
FCL
LCL
Bond
Export
Needed Output:
FCL is sliced FCL revenue need to be filtered and other slicers too.
Error:
When I select LCL slicer, overall revenue gets outputted. (because I created a calculated column in that table only).
How can I overcome and slice each and every table. Is this modelling issue or any other issue? Please help me out.
Thanks.
Hi v-juanli-msft,
I accept your statement.
But calculate tables works during slicer also.
The issue here is I haven't made proper relationship between tables.
Previously relationship between derived tables and other data table is dotted line.
I enabled "Make relationship actice" which converts the relation from dotted line to normal line, and when I selected a value in slicer it works.
So more or less this is a modelling issue which I faced.

Hi Krishna1992
calculate columns/tables are computed during database processing(e.g. data refresh) and then stored in the model, they do not response to user selections on the report, you need to create a measure so it can change with the slicer.
Could you show some data in table visual so i can analyze better?
Best Regards
Maggie
