Data Modeling - Date Table
I have this data: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aHULztI9Q0Ho7ffoRcBceAiElOTIZVji/view?usp=sharing
I need to create a connection between the Pholidays table and the rest of the tables. Please advise me how to create this connectionn?
Hi,
Write this calculated column formula in the Date Table
Column = LOOKUPVALUE('PHolidays (2)'[Public Holiday],'PHolidays (2)'[Date],'Date'[Date])Now ensure that all your tables are connected only to the Date Table. Whenever you want to view any information by Public Holidays, drag that column from the Date Table (not from the PHolidays table).
Hope this helps.

Hi,
You should create a Calendar Table first. Using the LOOKUPVALUE() function, bring over the Holidays from the PHolidays table to the Calendar Table. The Calendar Table should have a relationship with the other tables.
I created relationships to my tables. It does not display when a try and create a visualisation with different measures in powerbi? see: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CBpFLkw37E5aeYSG9RXMLTzOXUCdcn4m/view?usp=sharing and https://drive.google.com/file/d/1n6oJToedcG0lfh06Xq2RO5j1l-3pUYeR/view?usp=sharing

Hi,
Though it may not matter, please change the Cardinality and Cross filter direction to Many to One and Single.
