hi @LuizKoller ,

 

they are of different use.

CROSSFILTER only sets the cross-filtering direction of an active relationship, while USERELATIONSHIP activate a backup/secondary inactive relationship.

Right. The only reason to use both would be if you want to crossfilter on an inactive relationship.
