Straight Table Issue?

I'm new to Qlikview and I've been beating my head against this issue for the past week.  I have two tables one of them a master calendar generated from a script.  The other has implementation date and 20 columns of fiscal year total from FY2000-FY2020.

I build my two tables with the following and create the associate between the two tables by creating an alias of Date for Implementation Date and CalendarDate.  When I push Ctrl + t I see the association between the two tables, but when I create my straight table with an expression to sum my fiscal periods there is no functionality with the calendar table (meaning when I select CalendarYear or CalendarMonthName the straight table isn't affected....  Why is this?:
