Modelling Advice: Fact or Dimension Table
Thank you very much, Kurt, for your clear and swift answer.
Should I then have relationships between the "ticket" table and the time and sales tables? I read that there should never be relationships between fact tables

Gandalf12345,
Since 1, 2 and 3 are all ticket level facts, you might consider joining them all into one fact table.

If I understand that correctly, I would then have sth like the following
Ticket ID machine id location id manager id creation date offer ID Offer Price Time Entry ID Time Entry Person Duration (min) 1 M1 L1 E1 01/01/24 O1 100 T1 A1 60 1 M1 L1 E1 01/01/24 O1 100 T2 A1 30 1 M1 L1 E1 01/01/24 O2 50 T1 A1 60 1 M1 L1 E1 01/01/24 O2 50 T2 A1 30 Would not this create a really, really huge table then? Or did I misunderstand?

Looks like we're on the same page. What do you mean by a "really, really huge table"?
