Combing graphs from 2 datasets on the same tab
Ok I tried that and it seems to work for 2 tables and then the next two tables that I join based on date it doesnt work. I have a total of 4 tables linked in a many to one relationship with the calendar table and only 2 of them work. The other two when I select date fields everything goes blank.
The fields in question are all columns from my queries. Each query represents a different data set. One is about jobs, one is about utilization, one is comparing budget and revenue. All of them have Company and Yard columns, as well as Month and year date columns. All of the tabs that they have on their own have filters for Company and Yard as well as date fitlers. I have been requested to make an executive tab that combines graphs from all 3 tabs. I created the Yard and Company tables as a distinct list of the companies and yard and it works for 2 of the 3. Something with having more than 2 tables joined in a many to one relationship. Not sure but I am so ready to bang my head on the wall.

I know it’s a pain but it would be very helpful to have a sample of the fact tables you need to work with. Otherwise it is a bit of a shot in the dark.
If you are getting blanks, it can be for a number of reasons, including the fact that your lookup tables do not include all possible values from your fact tables, depending on what fields you are using in visuals etc... I can create a mock-up, but if the issue is what I’ve just explained, it will be of little use.
So... if possible, please provide a sample of the fact tables you need to reference. All of them. Then we can take it step by step.
We need you to help us help you, basically
PS: just so that you might understand my confusion, a few posts back you mention 3 data tables, and more recently you mention 4. Confession: I am lost as to what your basic fact tables are and exactly what fields you are trying to relate. I am happy to help, but I need to understand your scenario. Please provide examples in the form of tables (I'm not concerned about the bridge/lookup tables; I need to understand the data or fact tables you are trying to work with).
