Ambiguous relationship issue, please help.

akashpadmakumar_0-1729080912693.png

In this for the table "Availability planning" I have 3-4 relationships with "GradeMapping", "DIM Calender" , "Month Standard hours" and "Week Standard hours" with this I have actually come with a visual as well.

Now I am supposed to add another table to the same visual "WRBE" which has the same things as "Availability Planning" -

Like - "Grade" to map to "GradeMapping Table" and also Date to map to "DIM Calender"

the issue is, I can successfully map "WRBE"  - realtionship "Date" with the "DIM Calender", but If I try Grade as well- it shows an ambiguous realtionship

I am aware it is because I am already having a relationship with the "Availability Planning" hence not able to make that relationship.

Is there any work around ?, as I have filters from the Availability planning applied on the visual which should change with WRBE as well

Hi @akashpadmakumar ,

Based on the description, have you added another table to the visualization that has a relationship to the WRBE table?

If the content of the other table is the WRBE table, it is able to map the grade to the Grade Mapping table.

What’s more, try to create the inactive relationship.

why are all these relationships set to 'both' direction?

no specific reason, if I make them all uni directional I can make this relationship work ?
