Schema Advice

I have attacahed my schema for my data. 

 

I am having an issue when i try to bring in Activity_Amt from the Journal_Entry_Line_Item table.  I am trying to have the following items in my report

 

Fact_facility [COID] 

Fact_facility [COID_Name] 

Department [Dept_Num]

Sub_Functional_Department [Sub_Functional_Dept_Desc]

Journal_Entry_Line Item[Activity_amt]

 

When i go put in Activity Amt it  gives me the total amount and not the dept number total.  Any input would be helpful.

  • Please explain the reasoning for all of your Many-to-Many relationships with bidirectional search filter. Your data model should not have such connections unless you are absolutely positively sure that you need to have them. The ideal connection is a 1-to-Many connection with single filter direction from "dimension" to "fact".
