Connect two tables with a third helper table

[Anonymous]

I have two tables, 1. every sale by salesman(and a lot of other data i.e. color, product) 2. forecasted sales by salesman and month. Is there a way to create a relationship between my 2 tables? My idea was to have a third table with just a list of each salesman (so no duplicates). But when I filter the relationship doesn't seem to work on Table 2. Any Ideas?

Hi @Anonymous,

I helped another user with similar issue to your. Maybe help you too.

Great thanks got it working

when you look at Relationships view;  the join from Distinct Salesman Table to Table 1 looks identical to the join from Distinct Salesmant Table to Table 2?

and there is no join between 1 direct to 2 ..... correct?
