Slicer

[ANNEHERE]

Hi Power BI,

I have a problem with the slicer. I don't know if it is a slicer issue or a data issue.

I used Slicer to display data on my charts, especially those that I wanted to select. I am using different data sources on my dashboard. If I select data on my slicer, some charts show different data from what I selected.

Please give me some insight.

Hi, @ANNEHERE 

It is possible that the issue you are experiencing is related to the data sources you are using on your dashboard. When using multiple data sources, it is important to ensure that the data is properly linked and that the relationships between the data sources are correctly defined.

If the data sources are not properly linked, it can cause issues with the slicer and the charts displaying different data from what you selected. You can check the relationships between the data sources and ensure that they are correctly defined.

Another possible cause of the issue is the use of bidirectional cross-filtering. Bidirectional cross-filtering can cause issues with the slicer and the charts displaying different data from what you selected. You can try disabling bidirectional cross-filtering and see if that resolves the issue[1].

If the issue persists, you can try creating a new dashboard with a single data source and see if the issue still occurs. This can help you determine if the issue is related to the data sources or the slicer.
