Switch function not working with a slicer

Have been trying to figure this out, watched videos etc, but still can't get this to work.

I have a Customer Orders Table for Jan & Feb 2020 and need to annualize Customer Sales and place them in dollar buckets.  Then using a slicer with those buckets, display just those customers and their annualized sales that fall into the sales bucket selected.  In the example below, selecting 500-999 should only display customer 4 in the Sales Buckets Table.  Thanks in advance!!!!!

Here is the link again.  Clicking on it says that you must download it first. 

 

Or possibly via this link using my shared drive.  https://stryker-my.sharepoint.com/:u:/r/personal/rita_stump_stryker_com/Documents/Power%20BI/Power%2...

Hi,

None of those links work.

I have 2 Tables: Customer Sales &  Sales Buckets

Customer Sales Table
CustomerSalesDate
1$101/1/2020
2$151/1/2020
3$2001/1/2020
4$501/1/2020
1$52/1/2020
2$602/1/2020
4$552/1/2020
5$1,0002/1/2020
Sales Buckets Table
MinMaxSales Bucket to DisplayIndex
0249<2501
250499250-4992
500999500-9993
100049991000-49994
5000 >=50005

This is an image of my fields and measures:

my  4 measures are :

 

m_annualized Sales =
var TTLSales=CALCULATE(SUM('Customer Sales'[Sales]))
return DIVIDE(TTLSales,2)*12
 
m_annualized Sales bucket =
if([m_annualized Sales]<250,"<250",
IF(AND([m_annualized Sales]>=250,[m_annualized Sales]<=499),"250-499",
IF(AND([m_annualized Sales]>=500,[m_annualized Sales]<=999),"500-999",
IF(AND([m_annualized Sales]>=1000,[m_annualized Sales]<=4999),"1000-4999",
">=5000"))))
 
m_Sales all measures =
SWITCH([m_Selected Value],
"<250",[m_annualized Sales bucket]="<250",
"250-499",[m_annualized Sales bucket]="250-499",
"500-999",[m_annualized Sales bucket]="500-999",
"1000-4999",[m_annualized Sales bucket]="1000-4999",
">=5000",[m_annualized Sales bucket]=">=5000")
 
m_Selected Value = SELECTEDVALUE('Sales Buckets'[Sales Bucket to Display])
 
My Slicer uses the field Sales Bucket to Display. 
 
Reattaching my power bi screen print.  In the example below, by selecting slicer option 500-999, my Sales Bucket Table should only show customer # 4.  I'm just not sure what i'm doing wrong.

This is Great!!!!  Thank you!  Just curious, I thought I had to use the Switch function to make this work.  Is this just a different approach?

 

Thanks again!!

Thank you.  Yes, a completely different appraoch based on measures only and of course a disconnected table.
