Duplicate result while adding a measure

I have the following tables  :

  • Dim Client
  • Dim Contract
  • Dim Account
  • Fact Ledger
  • d_balance_mappings

     

    the relationships :

    • Dim Client to Dim Contract 1 to many / Cross filter direction Single from Dim Client to Dim Contract
    • Dim Client to Dim Account : 1 to many / Cross filter direction Single from Dim Client to Dim Account
    • Dim Account to Fact Ledger : 1 to many / Cross filter direction Both
    • Fact Ledger to d_balance_mappings : many to 1 / Cross filter direction both

       

      and I have these measures :

       

 

Account Principal Amount = CALCULATE([Ledger Total Amount],d_balance_mappings[Transaction Name] = "Account Principal Amount")


Ledger Total Amount = SUM( 'Fact Ledger'[Ledger Amount] )

 

 

 

 

When I build a table visual containing :

  • Client Id from Dim Client
  • Contract Type from Dim Contract
  • Client Name from Dim Client
  • Account Principal Amount (the measure)

     

    Client id       Contract Type    Client name      Ledger Amount
    123               Freelance            ABC                  1171378
    123               CDI                       ABC                  1171378

     

    So as you see I have duplicate rows it is like a cartesian product while for this Client Id the contract type is only Freelance.

     

  • Change the filter direction between Dim Client and Dim Contract to Both and give it a try!
