Hi,
I have a dimension table shown below which is in the hierarchy form and I want to create the relationship between diemnsion table and a fact table. The fact table has column 'object_oh_name3_lvl4' which is a common column in both the tables. The problem is that this column is not unique in the dimension table beacuse of which I am unable to create the relationship. I want to drill down the measure in the fact table from the top level of the hierarchy to the lowest level.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hey,
the data model inside Power BI does not support recursive dimension structures (e.g. Parent / Child dimensions). For this you have model your dimension in another way.
This article describes this in a very concise way: https://www.daxpatterns.com/parent-child-hierarchies/
Hopefully this provides what you are looking for.
Regards,
Tom
