Appended columns not shown in Report

Hello,

 

I have appended one table into another containing Unique key's, but when I want to show my Factstable in Report, two columns are not shown side by side. 

 

This is my scenario:

 

Factstable 1: 

KEY_Shop; KEY_Week; KEY_Product; Weekly_Sales

 

Table 2: Promotions

KEY_Shop; KEY_Week; KEY_Product; Promotion_ID

 

I have appended Table 2 into Factstable 1, and now I want to make measures in the Desktop. But when I want to show the Factstable with Promotion_ID next to Weekly_Sales, it shows them under each other, not next. 

 

I need to append these tables since otherwise they do not aggregate correctly later when I am exporting it to excel.

 

I have changed the value of Weekly_Sales to Decimal.

 

What do i need to do?

 

Kind regards

Hi @Polymath ,

 

In your scenario, you should use append instead of merge. Please refer to this third - party blog for more details.
