Issue Managing Two Fact Tables

Hi,

 

I have two fact tables; one for insurance product sales, and the other for claims. I also have two separate DIM tables, which are Calendar and Dealer.

 

I need to identify which product sales have made a claim, and more importanty, which have not, using their reference number. However, i am aware that i shouldn't try and connect the two fact tables. Can anyone help? 

 

 

Regards

J

  • One option would be to add a calculated column to the sales table, e.g.

    Claim made =
    Sales[Sale ID] IN VALUES ( Claims[Sale ID] )

      then add the columns that are common between both as dims so you can filter both.
