Slowly changing dimension type 2

Not sure what to call this but I have a fact table with Category {1...N} and other sized data like Amount and Date etc.

How to I properly work with this kind of dimension table ?

CategoryFromTo
A1.1.201831.12.2018
B1.1.201831.12.2018
C1.1.201831.12.2018
A1.1.201930.6.2019
A1.7.201931.12.2019
B1.1.201931.12.2019
C1.1.201931.12.2019

 

I want to use Many-to-Many relationship with the fact table and some kind of a DAX measure

Any idea ?

Hi,

 

What is the actual output you are looking for?

 

Actual output is a ratio.

I have daily fact data vs resorts with amount of hotel rooms they offer.

Sometimes the amount of rooms changes when they add rooms after reconstructing or something else so Resort A which had 60 rooms to offer now has 75 from 1.st of June 2019 and so forth

The Occupancy ratio is highly depentant on the available rooms : )

To make this problem easier to understand, here's my Dimension table

ResortValid FromValid ToRooms
A1.1.201831.12.2018220
B1.1.201831.12.2018150
C1.1.201831.12.201860
A1.1.201930.6.2019225
A1.7.2019 235
B1.1.2019 160
C1.1.2019 40

 

Last column (as a measure ofc ) would be my desired output

ResortDateNightsDesired OutputFormula* 
A1.1.201820091%200/220
