    You can easily do this in Power Query.

     

    Right click Original Table, select Reference , Remove the unwanted columns, select "Remove Duplicates", now you will have the column with unique values .

     

    You can use this table as Relationship / Bridge table as you needed.

     

    Thanks

One quick and easy method would be to make a reference copy of one of the tables and group by the column you want distinct values for.  You can eliminate any of the other columns you don't want.
