Use slicer to filter table with many to one relationship

[gozieokeke]

I need help setting up my relationships across two tables to allow me filter correctly.

The first table contains all staff information with txtEmployeeNumber as the primary key.

The second table has information on the sections and some staff work across various sections.

ADUsers                            StaffSection        

txtEmployeeNumber  1:*  txtStaffID       

Title                                   txtSection  

The cardinality is many to one and cross-filter direction is both.

I have created a table visual from my staff table and want to filter using a slicer based on sections so that when I click each section, any staff assigned to that section should appear.

The table works fine but when I click a section in the slicer, the table goes empty.

Here is a screenshot of what I am trying to achieve and my results so far.

And when the slicer is selected

Could someone please point me in the right direction?

Hi gozieokeke,

Double check that the values in the two columns in the relationship are actually matching properly. That's my first thought whenever a slicer returns nothing. If they visually look the same, one common issue is a difference in white spaces.
