Slicer based on date and hour
I think you went about it correctly. The only reason why the realtionship wouldn't be working is if the Pen and notebook datetimes aren't aggregated to the hour. Meaning 2019-03-19 04:53:26 needs to be 2019-03-19 04:00:00. You have this in your example, but i wanted to be sure.
The default slicer doesn't support the hourly level, but i think there are custom slicers in the store that accomplish this.
A workaround would be creating a new calc column on each table that is a type of Number (preffered) or Text, with the formula being MyDateYMDH = FORMAT([MyDate], "yyyyMMddhh"), then relate them. However, this only solves the relationship problem, not the slicer problem.
Thanks so much for reply! Which slicer would be more appropriate from the store? The slicer i am using cannot select hours so scorecards display (Blank). I have tried others but was not able to find one that works.
