    Hi,

     

    You are right you need to create a new dimension table and connect your 2 old table to this new one. And this new one will be the data in the slicer.

    The best way to create it is in power query. Right Click on the column header that you want to be your dimension and click "Add as new query". 

    go to new query in the menu chose "To Table" , right click on the collumn header again and remove duplicates.

    Now i see that you have a null in your collumn and it is the error message cause.

    Clean null rows, or replace null for 0
