I would need inputs in desiging of the data model. i have three tables (A,B,C,D)

Joining by Shipto ID between A,B,C and D

A join with D (Ship to ID)

B Join D (Ship to ID)

C Join D (Ship ID)

Also B,C Joining with D(New instance table)  Submitted by  ID

B Join D (submitted by ID)

C Join D (Submitted by ID)

The problem is need show the data from A,B (Shipto ID) tables along with C (Join with Submitted by),but its  not giving the exact results when I pull the data from these three tables in power BI report.

what is the best apparoch to make efficent relationship between these 4 tables (A,B,C,D). Compoiste joining is not allowing.

each table has its own data ,so we can't combined the data between these 4 tables.

Hi @Anonymous ,

You may create active relationships between A,B,C and D on Ship to ID with ticking the option "Make this relationship active", and create inactive relationships between B, C and D on Submitted by ID without ticking the option.

Then if you need to use the inactive relationships for field Submitted by ID, you can create measure using USERELATIONSHIP function like DAX below.

Measure1= CALCULATE(COUNT(D[Submitted by ID]),USERELATIONSHIP(B[Submitted by ID], D[Submitted by ID]))

Best Regards,

@Anonymous , Did not get it completely. But you can create a concatenated column in both tables and join it

New column like

New key = [Column1] &"-" &[Column2]

How does it work? which table to which table the join should make? how it effect on end results.
