Question about data modeling

Hi everyone,

 

I have a question about my model.

I have 2 fact tables (actual and forecast) and 2 dimension tables (Products and Calendar).

I want to calculate the difference between the actual and the forecast at the BatchNum level.

It works at the Products level but not with the BatchNum.

Is it necessary to create a BatchNum dimension table?

Thank you for your help

Hello, @PBI_37 ,
Yes, you're right. You can append both fact tables, keep only BatchNum column, remove duplicity and make that as third dimension and connect it back to the fact tables as normal dimension.
