How to deal with many to many dimensions in Tabular?

I have this model:

ovonel_0-1660648122370.png

 

 

Emp Roles is an unpivot that has Manager1 and Manager2 from Contracts and Manager1 and Manager2 from Clients:

  • Each Contract/Client can appear multiple times in Fact.
  • Each Fact row belongs to only one Contract and only one Client

As expected, a given client can have different contracts… (And, a given contract can belong to multiple clients too).

Therefore clients and contracts is Many to Many too.

 

My problem is that when in Power BI I combine a manager from Emp Roles with a fact measure I get some wrong results.

 

Is there any way for this to work?

Hi @ovonel ,

 

You seem to be related two fact tables using a many-to-many relationship, please refer to:

Relate many-to-many facts

 

A good model is half the battle, and Power BI prefers to use a star schema  when modeling.
