Default Slicers and Calculated Items in Pivot Table

I have a Pivot Table/Pivot Chart with slicers. There are 4 slicers attached. When one slicer is filtered the other slicers will filter(grey out) accordingly. But I also have some calculated items in Column Label field. When 1 of these calculated items is selected, the slicers all lose their filter link to each other. (unavailable items in other slicers are no longer greyed out) Non-calculated items don't affect the slicers this way.

Once the slicers are unlinked I can't get them to link with each other again.(I have to open an earlier copy)
All the slicer fields are in the Report Filter section of pivot and data is too large to move these fields to row labels section of pivot.
Pivot source is a MS query connection to an Access database.
Calculated Items are ratios and are calculated to the desired level by the use of the Report Filters.

This workkbook will be used by management so I need an easy way to select only items that are still 'available' after 1 or more of the Report Filters is used. Slicers looked like the answer but any suggestions would be helpful.
