Power BI Report Builder parameter drop down list is blank when running the report

I have two tables in a dataset which have a relationship between them. I have modelled this relationship using the DAX NATURALINNERJOIN function. I want to create a parameter so that when I run the report I can filter the data by location. However, when I run the report the parameter drop down list is empty and no values can be selected. I have included my DAX Query below which runs correctly when executed within the Query Designer. I have also included screenshots to show my report parameter properties. If anyone has any solutions to this problem it would be greatly appreciated.

 

DAX Script shown below:

 

EVALUATE

FILTER(SELECTCOLUMNS(NATURALINNERJOIN( comOrganisations,WorkRequests),

                                                                            "Name", [Name],
                                                                            "Work Request ID", [WorkRequestID],
                                                                            "Schedule Status", [Schedule Status],
                                                                            "EstimatedStartDate (bins)", [EstimatedStartDate (bins)],
                                                                            "Weekly Report", [Weekly Report],
                                                                            "EstimatedStartDate",[EstimatedStartDate],                          RSCustomDaxFilter(@comOrganisationsName,EqualToCondition,[comOrganisations].[Name],String)),

[EstimatedStartDate (bins)] >= DATEVALUE("03/01/2022") + TIMEVALUE("03/01/2022") &&
[EstimatedStartDate (bins)] <= DATEVALUE("31/01/2022") + TIMEVALUE("31/01/2022") )

Hi @Conorw15 ,

 

When you design a report, report parameters are saved in the report definition. When you publish a report, report parameters are saved and managed separately from the report definition.

 

For a published report, you can use the following:

Report parameter properties. Change report parameter values directly on the report server independently from the report definition.

Report subscriptions. You can specify parameter values to filter data and deliver reports through subscriptions.

 

For more information,you can refer to: Report parameters in Power BI Report Builder 

 

Hope it helps,
