Waterfall chart based on Two tables

Hello,

I have two tables and I want to have waterfall chart based on division by ID of both tables. Both the table share similar ID. Below are my tables:

DateIDVolume
17/01/2022AB-1345356
11/01/2022AB-289643
18/01/2022AB-123574
25/01/2022AB-26379
11/01/2022AB-335855

 

DateIDVolume
11/01/2022AB-14567
25/01/2022AB-289643
11/01/2022AB-1445
25/01/2022AB-2233
17/01/2022AB-17676

I have connected them with new date table as I have few other tables so all are conected with same date table. Everything is working fine. I have used Simple Waterfall chart visual from App source. I have summed above table Volume and named it as Planned and for second table I named its volume as Planned.

I want waterfall to look like this below picture:

But problem is when I put ID column from first table it shows only that ID data along with random planned as it is from other table similarly If I put ID from second table then it shows correct planned value but wrong actual value and actual value division as zero.

I have attached the picture as well as pix file if anybody can help whether it is possible or not.

Yes, you have 2 options either you can follow the below link and use the DAX USERELATIONSHIP and use an in-active relationship.

https://www.sqlbi.com/articles/using-userelationship-in-dax/

 

Or create a separate table with unique ids from both the tables as i mentioned previously.

For the optimization use the Filtering direction to a single side instead of both sides.

Hello @Junaid11 

 

The problem you are facing is due to the relationship issue as there is no connection in the model between the ID of those 2 tables as the connection is made only from the date table.

I would not recommend the M*M as to eliminate that you can create a separate table with unique ids from both the tables.

Hello @NimaiAhluwalia ,

Yes I know that but I already have realtionship with date table to which I have make relationship of all the tables. We cannot have active relationship one for date and one for ID column I guess. Is there any other solution that we can keep Date relationship among both the table as well as get the ID based waterfall chart?

Hello @NimaiAhluwalia ,

I have managed to add a Bridge Table but its value is repeating in water fall chart once for planned and once for actual

you can use 

 

Table = DISTINCT(UNION(VALUES(Sheet1[ID]),VALUES(Sheet2[ID])))
