The symbol next to the fields means they are numeric data type with a default aggregation.
If the MasterExport table is your fact table, try creating a new query by referencing it (right click "reference") and then add [Description] to the source line in the advanced editor or formula bar. Then trim and clean and then remove dups. Then try linking both original tables to this lookup table. You may have to change crossfiltering direction to both depending on how you want to work with the data.
