Easy fix help please!

Hi all,

 

I'm pretty new to BI so looking for some help with what I think should be a simple task..

I have a 'Dispensations' table that shows a sites unique ID.
I have a 'Timebase' table which shows the site name.
I need to get the site name from the 'Timebase' table into the the 'Dispensations' table so I can refrence both the site and the site unique ID (along with a few other things).

This sounds simple and I imagine it is so please could anyone help me out? I've never used the measures before!

TIA.

JD.

does your timebase table also have the site Unique ID? If so, you can create a relationship between the 2 tables on this ID that will then allow you to present data from different tables.

-This is provided you don't have other relationships between this tables already.

 

If this is the case, I would consider creating a reference table with the ID and name as a standalone table and then creating seperate relationships.

 

-There is probably more complicated ways to do it, but these are the 2 simpler (longer maybe) options I would use in this case.
