Hi az38
it was no relationship but I created:
- From Kit[Product] to Kit Category[Product] many to one.
The error only appears when I want to add the Type column. If I deleted it, I have a table named Kit Category with two columns; Country and Product.
Thanks for your help.

so, jlarques
as i understand it works without type column because each product in your data source has the only category.
but when you add "type" column, you get a few rows with the same product and category but with different types
as you have a many-to-one relations it became impossible, because many product from Kit table have relations with many products from Kit Category
for my point, the best solution is to create in Kit table calculated column
SurrogateKey = concatenate('Table'[Product];concatenate('Table'[Category];'Table'[Type]))then try to build a master table:
KIT CATEGORY= DISTINCT( KIT[SurrogateKey] )and create a relationship many-to-one by this SurrogateKey field
