Anonymous try this

 

- relationship between code dimension table with offadd table and couple split table, it will be one to many one on code dimension table, 

- change relationship cross filter direction to both, between code dimension and off add table

- in table visual, drop channel and spending from off ads table and discount from coupon table 

 

and I think that will do it.

    Anonymous seems like there are other tables in the model preventing to set this relationship, I provided the information based on what you showed in excel, remove other relationship for now and test the solution.

      really appreciate your support. In order to use the workaround you proposed I also need to remove the relationship with City Dimension table which is mentioned as input table in my second message. That is not really desired solution for me as it brakes the logic of whole dashboard. 

       

      Any other option I can use for this case by keeping relationship between tables as they are and instead using some Measures?

        Anonymous you can have inactive relationship, and then create a measure use USEREALTIONSHIP function to make inactive relationship to active.
