Any reason why a dataset filtered the same way would appear diff

Hi there,

I have a report that I am using to track internal Activity on specific metrics. In this report, I have a dataset pulled which logs specific types of activities in our CRM automatically with a date, the user that made the activity, and some additional context around the "status" of the activity. For some reason, when I apply a filter for a specific week (using the datetable that Jens kindly shared after our training), as well as filtering for a specific user, it returns 1 row of data that matches the filters when viewing in report view, but when viewing the same dataset in table view it returns 7 rows of data.

Appreciate any help that can be offered here!
Thanks

Hi Angus,

Thank you for the forum question.

Do you have a model where you have a relationship going from the date table straight to the table which show 1 row or 7 rows?


Kind regards

Here is the measure which is showing the incorrect data in case that is helpful!

Submitted Count =
COUNTROWS(
FILTER(
'Shortlist Updates',
CONTAINSSTRING('Shortlist Updates'[Shortlist Status], "submit")
)
)

RE: Any reason why a dataset filtered the same way would appear

Hi Jens - I managed to figure it out! The visual I had created was built across multiple tables so I had a "User" table linking everything together, but the table causing the issue had an inactive relationship, which meant that the visual was trying to assess matching rows given a different relationship that was still active.

Hi Jens - yes - happy to share the whole report with you although it is connected to our dataverse directly so the data will struggle to refresh for you I assume?
