Hi hoping someone can help me with this. I have two tables one with a list of applications and permissions they have assigned and another table that gives the permissions a friendly name a description. The problem I have is that the permissions can have the same name, but a different description based on their PermissionType. If I create a relationship between the tables based on permission, I get both descriptions for the permission. Is there a way to get the correct description based off of the PermissionType?
Solved! Go to Solution.
hey,
create a new column on both tables, that merged the permision and the p.type
New column = [Permision column}&[Permision Type column]
and make the relantionship between these 2 columns,
if this helped give some kudos, if it answered your question also mark as solution for others to find it.
