I have 4 tables for our in-house project tracking app. We track info at different levels of detail between our estimate and planned, which I think is causing the issue, but not sure.
TABLES - there is more, non-pertiennt info in each table
- Estimate
- TaskID
- ProjectID
- Contractor
- Discipline
- Period
- PeriodID
- Start Date
- End Date
- Percent Complete
- TaskID
- PeriodID
- *Info*
- Plan
- ProjectID
- PeriodID
- Contractor
- Discipline
- Contractor and Discipline are the same as in the esimate table but are not FK b/c those values are not unique
In Power BI Desktop
Estimate is related to Percent Complete via TaskID
Period is related to Percent Complet via PeriodID
Period is related to Planned via PeriodID
Estimate is related to Planned via a concatenated field of ProjectID + Team + Discipline via an intermediary b/c on their own it is a many to many relationship
The problem occurs when I try to connect Period to Planned via PeriodID and it says I am introducing ambiguity, I am assuming through the Estimate to Percent Complete to Period relationship
I'm sure you'll need additional info, please let me know what else I can provide to get past this one...thanks!
