Relationship Issue in Data Model

Hi,

 

I have been working on 4-5 dashboards together by using same data source. All of the dashboards were working perfectly fine till today. I have received error message which you can see below suddenly when i tried to refreash the data today. Generally, every day i used to refreash data manually and it was working fine.

There is no primary key (Unique key) column becuase all of the tables are conencted through this type of number. Again, everything was working till today afternoon which means all of realtionship were correct.

 

Have no idea what could be wrong here as i have never came to this kind of situation.

 

Any help or suggestion would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

In the one side of table, you somehow had a duplicate value which means the related column is no long has distinct values, so many to one relationship is no long valid. You can try delete the duplicates, or change the relationship from many to many (not recommended, may bring errors to existing calculations).

Hi,

 

My apologies for late response. 

 

Thank you for your response and I have resolved the issue by just deleting table and reloaded table again with same relationship.

 

 

Thanks

One of your table which is on the One side of the Many to one relation has got a duplicate value. Try to reload that table.

 

You can go to Data Transformation or Edit Query and delete the duplicate.
