Analysis Service Tabular Model there are ambigous path relationship

Hi there,

I have below tabular model SSAS relationship in data model :

ActionTable [ActionDate] with M:1 with CalenderDate[FullDate]

TicketTable[TicketReportDate] with M:1 with CalenderDate[FullDate]

 

CalenderTable

FullDate

 

ActionTable

ActionID

TicketID

ActionDate

 

TicketTable

TicketID

TicketReportDate

 

But when I try to add new relationship ActionTable[TicketID] M:1 with TicketTable[TicketID] it says there are ambigous path between 'ActionTable' and 'CalenderTable': 'ActionTable' --> 'CalenderTable' and 'ActionTable'->'TicketTable'->'CalenderTable'

 

please help?

 

This is in Visual Studio SSAS tabular project.

  • kaushikmakadia , Please create a common ticket Table. As both are already joined with Calendar in 1-M and now consider as facts. If the ticket is both fact and dimension. Take one more copy of the ticket and use that as a dimension , do no join with date

        kaushikmakadia , As Both Ticket and Action, are Fact. If you need to join Ticket and Action then you need to have a common ticket table. That comes from distinct values from both table.

        But If Ticket to Action is 1 -M, means the ticket is also dimension, as well as fact. Add Ticket again  with a new(Ticket_dim)  name and use it only to connect with  Ticket and  Action(1 - M)
