I am trying to compare the sales value against the target value accross time and regions, the issue i am having is that i can see the sales per region and date, and separately i can see the target per date (lookup so this is related) but not by region, after unpivoting the Target Table when i try to make a relationship betwen the table Target and Region i get an error because the Region table doesnt contain unique values; I created a region KEY table and made a relationship to the region table but still no luck, when i try to compare the Target with Sales, powerbi sum all the target values in the regions example:
I have 2 lookup tables: A data table and Regions table:
CODE | COUNTRY | REGION |
AT | Austria | DACH |
BG | Bulgaria | Eastern Europe |
PL | Poland | Eastern Europe |
CZ | Czech Republic | Eastern Europe |
then one Sales Data table:
Shipping Country | Products Item | Products Quantity | Products Price | Order Total | Shipping Date |
DE | 2447AB | 1 | 33.6 | 33.6 | 2019-11-22 |
DE | 7626AB | 2 | 25 | 50 | 2019-11-28 |
PL | 1370AB | 20 | 18 | 360 | 2019-11-20 |
DE | 2601AB | 1 | 0 | 0 | 2019-11-19 |
DE | 314AB | 30 | 15 | 450 | 2019-11-18 |
PL | 3154AB | 10 | 13.5 | 135 | 2019-11-20 |
And the Target Table:
Month | DACH | Eastern Europe |
Oct-19 | 377,033 | 92,125 |
Nov-19 | 404,556 | 58,246 |
Dec-19 | 222,883 | 259,211 |

I would really appreciatte any help on this.
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
You can take Region from Region Table, not from Territory.
I advise you to use Star schema relationship.
modify your tables by merge (Territory , Region,Target) and make it as one table.
Your relationship view seems fine. Both relations with Date and Region is One to Many with Target.
If possible please share a sample pbix file after removing sensitive information.
Thanks
Hello @amitchandak Thanks for the reply.
You can download the pbix from onedrive here: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AguM2qARs0_yhlk819ZM_o5SBCQ6?e=OY4suB
Thanks in advace for your help.
after see the file - the problem is
Sales by Territory code and Target by Region code.
Solution:
Modify Target table to be by Territory -
merge territory code , region and target togther.
You can take Region from Region Table, not from Territory.
