Sync slicers when week number is pulling from two different data sources

Hi, I wonder if anyone can assist.

 

I have a dataset where I want to Sync all slicers for week number using the below visuals slicer. This slicer is pulling week number from Trip Detail data source. However, the second visual's week number is pulling from a different data source and therefore they don't sync. Is it possible to sync slicers from two different fields/data sources? Would I need to edit something in manage relationships?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, @clarkey1988 

If you want to make the slicer to filter the data of week number from two different tables, I think you should edit a relationship between the [Week Number] of the two tables, and make the “Cross filter direction” from column in the Slicer to the other [Week Number] column, like this:

To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :radacad sqlbi My Video Series Appreciate your Kudos.
