Not possible to set One to Many Relationship with Table with Unique key Values

[Anonymous]

Dear Community;

I'm quite familiar with Tabular Data Models and I heve been working with Power BI since few years already, I clearly understand the principle of the Relational Data Model, this time I'm trying to create a One to Many relation between 2 tables and I got a message in Power BI Desktop warning that is a cardinality Many-Many.

I've have checked by all the meaninings the uniqness of the values in my Column key and they're unique in one of the table, herein some screenshots to support my issue:

Data Model:

Message when I try to set Relationship:

Table Verification for Distinct Values on Table N-1 Reports:

Can you please help me to solve this issue?  Probably I'm missing something I can't see to set this relationship.

Thanks in Advance for you Useful Help;

BLANK values can cause this. (and checking the number of unique values and rows is not necessarily a confirmation:

one table can have ABC, another BCD - both have 3 rows, both have the same number of unique values and yet the values are different...)

To solve this you can create a bridget table between the two conflicting tables including all unique values from both the tables you are trying to create. You can create a new table with:
New bridge table = 
VAR ValuesT1 = VALUES(Table1[Column])
VAR ValuesT2 = VALUES (Table2[Column])
RETURN
DISTINCT(
UNION(ValuesT1, ValuesT2)
)

Then create a One-to-Many relationship between this bridge table and the other two tables.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Just a thought, what if delete the relationship between 'people lookup' and 'N-1 reports'.
