Slicer inconsistent, all filled, or all empty

Hi, I have a slicer with only two values. There are no other values available, nor any blancs.

 

 

If I select both values I should select everything, and I get a result of a checksum that is say 500.

 

Now the strange part. If I leave the slicer all empty, normally that is the same thing, select everying. But now I get a value of 700!

 

Something is filtering in the relations in one table, when it should not. Can any give my a hint what is going on behind the scenes? If I delete the slices all together I also get 700. So I get a feeling there is an optimization down deep in Power BI that will omit a check if nothing is selected, but is triggered then everying is selected. I just cannot find what is wrong.

 

Any ideas?

    Well understood. But the model is large, and I fail to reproduce it in a small model. 

     

    But what is the difference of a slicer accoring the the picture, where all is selected, and none is selected? Normally it provide the same result (it shows all), but not this time.

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    The information you have provided was not clear enough. What does your data model look like and are you doing any calculation?

     

    Best Regards,
