Trouble Creating Relationships
HI all,
I've tried the solutions that I've found in previous tickets but it still won't work for me.
Everytime I want to create a relationship between the different sql tables I get the error:
You can't create a relationship between these two columns because one of the columns must have unique values
Ok what I want to do:
I've got 3 data sources, those are 3 different sql sources.
But they all got 2 items in common: the name of the analyst and the group.
So I want to create the relation ship for the name within those 3 tables, and for the groups.
Name is mentioned in red, group is mentioned in blue.

The name&group table has the analyst_name which contains the same names (and format of names) as Assignee (Tickets) and assignee_full_name (Changes).
The goup_name (Name&group) has the same names of the group (and format) as Group_name(Tickets) and group_name(Changes).
What I want to create:
- an visual report with some data from the tickets and changes table.
- possible to filter on the group-name and/or analyst name
I hope someone can give me an helpfull hand
Anonymous,
You may add a new table and build relationship on the concatenated column.
Table = ADDCOLUMNS ( DISTINCT ( 'Name&group' ), "Name | Group", 'Name&group'[Name] & " | " & 'Name&group'[Group] )

Do you have a single column in the name and group table that has unique values? It doesn't look like it.
