start of week date key

I have built a date key in order to get start of week dates for my data:

 

DateKey = CALENDAR(DATE(2000,01,01),DATE(2050,12,31))
 
then
 
WeekStartDate = DateKey[Date]- WEEKDAY(DateKey[Date],2)+1 // Monday as Week start date
 
However I keep arriving at a many to many relationship when I try to RELATE the DateKey to my Core Data table.
 
Is there any way to create a DateKey with just start of the week dates (and index)
 
NOTE: I cant manually enter the start of the week data and RELATE based on that.
 
Can anyone help?

@Anonymous , case your table has the start of week date. You need to join it with the date key.

Start of Week in Date table will make sure a similar display in visual.

 

If not share what is there on the fact side. I shall try suggest the join

The only way I can t get it to work is using the single date variable:

However I would like to use SoW (START OF WEEK) and WeekStartDate relationship
