Single Table Visualization, Multiple Data Tables
a couple of things..
1) Have you made the relationship between Table 1 and Vehicles Table bi-directional for some specific reason? if not, change it to single
2) for the interaction betwen your Stacked column chart and the table visualisation to work, the date field in the chart x axis and in your table must be from your date table. Similarly, your table visual should include a row context from your Vehicle Field for the visual to filter all related tables.
3) If you have any other common fileds in your tables (name? etc..) I would suggest you create lookup tables (same principal as the Vehicle Table) and use these in all your measures, filters, slicers..This ensures that the filter context throughout you model is consistent and allows you to do calculations across tables etc..
Not sure if that helps, but without seeing more details about fields used in the table visual, where they are coming from and how you have built the measures it is hard to be more precise.
It would help if you could mash up a mock sample of data representing your model with which we can work with within Desktop to provide better advice. If you can (no need for thousands of rows or all the tables even; just a representation of the data), share the Excel file (or PBIX file) via OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox...
Thank you PaulDBrown for putting some thought into this.
- RE: BiDirectional Relationship:
- I changed this back to Single direction
- Was bi-directional while I was experimenting
- RE: X-axis from DATE_TABLE:
- Yes, the x-axis is from the DATE_TABLE
- RE: Table visualization should have a VehicleName column:
- It does. This column is the only common column among all 5 of the tables I want to visualize here
- The remaining columns are UNIQUE to each respective table. This is the issue
I think the answer might be showing and hiding 5 Table Visualizations depending on the type of data clicked on in the column chart.
I don't think its possible to show different tables in a single Table visualization.
