Possible Tip/Trick: Dynamic Date Dimension Table
I'm going to share the dynamic date dimension table I built, hopefully it is useful to someone! I named it DateTable for this tutorial, and my fact table FactTable. The table is built using the ...
faacq one of the columns in a relationship must have unique values. A month name column will have the same month name appear at least 28 times. Date tables are normally linked to fact tables via the unique date column. All other columns are supplemental info about the date in question, not meant for creating relationships.
Thank you for the reply. I probably do not undestand the purpose of having a date table. I was expecting after establishing the link between my fact table and the date table, to use the slicers to filter my data in many different ways.
If establishing the relation is not needed, how can I use the date table to slice my data?
