Table join - multiple columns
I have two tables joined together on 3 columns
1. Market
2. WeekNumber
3. Division
Using the columns from one table only, I'd like to filter the data for a metric in the other table. However, when I apply the filter, the metric doesn't change. I realised that the data only chages for the column where I've marked the join as "make this relationship active", but i can only do this for one column.
How can I filter the metrics based on all 3 columns of the other table?
Thanks

Hi v-chuncz-msft , thanks for the link.
I actually ended up doing something similar by merging the columns I wanted to join and then join the tables on these merged columns.

Hello bo_afk ,
You need to create measures by using dax : USERELATIONSHIP
This will help you to filter your visuals accordingly.
If you could share the sample data along with expected results, then we could provide a better solution.

bo_afk ,
I think you want to join on more than one column. Create a concateneated column in both tables like this
key = Market & "-" & WeekNumber &"-"& Division
and join.
Power BI mutiple joins are there to change relation using userelation. You can check my HR Anaytics blog for that. Link is in signature.
