Create relationships
Connect tables so filters flow correctly.
-
Step 1: Also load the Product and Region tables from the practice file (Home → Get data → Excel workbook), then switch to Model view to see all your tables as cards.
-
Step 2: Drag a key column (for example ProductID) from one table onto the matching column in another.
-
Step 3: Check the cardinality (usually one-to-many,
1 → *) and that the relationship is active (a solid line, not dashed).Watch out: Two paths between tables cause ambiguity. Keep one active relationship per pair of tables.
