Multiple Data Models

Hello--

 

I see there is a way to have multiple layouts of data models in the Relationship View tab.

 

Distinct from the 'All Tables' tab can you have: one page operate off one data model with different relationships, let's call it 'Tab A' and then another page operate off a separate data model with different relationships, calling this 'Tab B'?

 

Each of these models would be have distinct uses from one another for reporting purpose.

 

Appreciate any input thank--especially if I am looking at it from a wrong/harder way. Thank you.

    No you can't have different relationships. The separate tabs just let you view a sub-set of the full model. It is purely a way of filtering the All Tables view, but under the covers it is still just a single data model.

     

    To utilize different relationships you either need to setup inactive relationships and use the USERELATIONSHIP or CROSSFILTER functions within specific measures or create a separate file with another copy of your tables.
