how do I link all in the report to be interactive and update

[dd88]

I am new to PowerBI.  I have created a PowerBI desktop report.  

Its a progress status report.

The 1st example, most of the visuals are linked and when a visual item is selected, all update correctly to display the current selection.

Displays

Status Totals  - Visual are Cards

Status breakdown - VIsual is a bar chart

By Issue  - Visual is a Table

By Department - Visual is a Table

Action - Visual is a Table

The 2nd example, I added a slicer to see what it would look like. The slicer has the fields  1.Status  2. by Department  3.by the Issue and 4. Action. This is actually the information the business user wants to see. 

In the slicer, when I select an item, how can I link it so all other visuals on the report update to reflect the selection? At the moment there are no 'links' and the reason the visuals either error or do not display.
I dont even know the terminology what that would be called, or function to ask you? for example is it a drill down?

Or, I am open to a better design suggestion if you have one. 

TIA
