Helper IDealing with Multiple Tables connecting to One Date Table
Hello Community,
I have a question that I think many may have experience with. I have a Users table, and an Orders table. They both have important dates that I'd like to do time intelligence on. For my Users table, I have created a Date Table, and have both inactive and active relationships there, no problem. But what do I do about my Orders table? I create an Orders Date Table, but as you can imagine, it's very messy when I want to filter on a page.
How can I have only 1 Date Table, and both my Users and Orders table refer to it?!
Here is my model:
Thank you,
Denisse

ruesaint_denisGreg_Deckler it won't interfere with my model? I have a connection b/w Users and Orders, and Users connects to Date table. It's ok to also connect Orders to Date table?

ruesaint_denis Sure, it will just be inactive is all. That's why you use USERELATIONSHIP to tell DAX which relationship to use.
