Two Table join issue using third table

hi,

 

I have these two tables 10_early_pw_discipline and  30_late_pw_discipline

 

I want to create a dashboard by using both tables but want to filter graphs based on a column discipline.

 

below is the data in these two table:-

10_EARLY_PW_DISCIPLINE

Discipline, EARLY_PW_WK, PW_EARLY_BASELINE

ELECTRICALPW010.03%
PIPINGPW010.02%
ELECTRICALPW020.05%
PIPINGPW020.05%
PIPINGPW030.07%
ELECTRICALPW030.08%

 

 

30_LATE_PW_DISCIPLINE

Discipline, Attribute, PW_LATE_BASELINE

 

ELECTRICALPW010.03%
ELECTRICALPW020.05%
ELECTRICALPW030.08%
PIPINGPW010.02%
PIPINGPW020.05%
PIPINGPW030.07%

 

 

I created the below graph its working fine but for this, I added a new table discipline and applied a filter.. so my query is why should I add a new table discipline and make join with both existing tables to achieve this.....how i can achieve this without adding a new table to make join?

Hi @RAKESH1986 ,
You can make the relationship between 10_EARLY_PW_DISCIPLINE and DISCIPLINE as bidirectional 
Note :- Please avoid having any relationship between 10_EARLY_PW_DISCIPLINE and 30_LATE_PW_DISCIPLINE . A circular relationship flow is not encourage in power bi .
