- If multiple columns are specified, they must be from the same column.

- If a single solumn is specified, and the target column is sorted by another column, both columns must be included as arguments. This is because DAX includes both columns in the underlying query, so the inclusion of the sort by column adds the filters back in, as described in [this article](https://www.sqlbi.com/blog/marco/2018/05/04/removing-column-filter-in-power-bi-when-sort-by-column-is-active/) on :::no-loc text="sql.bi.com":::.

not a fan of links to sqlbi. We should document this ourselves.

Agreed. That article refers specifically to ALL. Should I add a synopsis to the ALL page and refer to it here, or explain the behavior in both places?

@jeroenterheerdt Should the adjustments to documentation ("we should document this ourselves") be done now or in a later PR?

I won't accept links to SQLBI in our documentation. So it has to be documented in this PR.
