Filtering throug inactive indirect relationship

I have the following tables with the following relationship A<...*:*...>B, B-*:1->C where C is some lookup table. Lets say in table A there is Status field called IsCompleted which is used in BarChart like this to show total iscomplete true vs false.

Lets say I have drop down slicer for the lookup table C. The problem I have given indirect relationship and given is that when I select a value from the slicer to filter by, the tolals in the bar chart doesnt change. I tried using USERELATIONSHIP and ALLSELECTED but nothing worked! how can I get this working? Thanks alot.

Hi @alisaleh ,

 

I create a sample to have a test, and USERELATIONSHIP should work well.

Table A:

Table B:

Table C:

Relationship:

Measure = 
CALCULATE(SUM('Table A'[Value]),USERELATIONSHIP('Table A'[Category],'Table B'[Category]), USERELATIONSHIP('Table B'[Category],'Table C'[Category]))

Result is as below.
