Hello,
I have two tables:
T1 {t1_ID, name}
T2 {t1_ID, address}
There is a 1:1 relashionship between these two. So, T1[t1_ID] = T2[t1_ID].
T1 has much more records than T2.
T1 - t1_ID, name
1 Jack
2 Peter
------------------------------------
T2- t1_ID, address
1 150 cooper st.
----------------------------------------
Now, if I choose, T2[t1_ID], T2[address], T1[name] in report tab,
Power BI does not do the inner join or left join. It shows me the prodoct of these two table.
Result:
1 150 cooper st. Jack
- - Peter
If I change the relationship to 1:* in the relationship tab. It gives me what I want (The inner join of these two table)
What is wrong?
Is it a bug or I misunderstood the tool
Thanks
