a link table to connect 2 tables that are causing a loop

Hello All.  This might not be do-able, but I'm asking anyway.  Hope it's not too much to ask.

I’ve attached an excel spreadsheet that shows the layout of my tables.  The problem is that I can’t join “Dcstudents” table because it has same fields as in “CPCFile” and “Mcalendar” (I get a loop).  I need “Dcstudents” to be separated because the disciplineid in the table combines 2 disciplines (so that a student is only counted once). Example, “CPCFile” can have disciplineid 67 and 65, but in “Dcstudents”, I only have 65 (if a student received 67 and 65, the 67 is counted as 65 so that student is counted once if she received 65 and 67).    I need to still somehow connect “CPCFile” and “Dcstudents” because I need to do comparisons in the APP.  Can anyone show me how to build some kind of Link table between “CPCFile” and “Dcstudents” and a Link table between “Dcstudents” and “Mcalendar” (for the Date)?   “CPCFile” and “Dcstudents” need to use the same calendar values, etc.

Thanks in advance

Celia

Hi Celia,

Looks like your fact table is CPCFile and Dcstudents.

My suggestion is to concate two table into 1 table

so Your script will be like this:

Load

Disciplineid as disciplineid,
schoolid,
studentid,
therapistid,
Date,
consult,
direct,
individual,
rate,
DC

From CPC File;

concatenate

Load

 

studentid,
disciplineid,
schoolid,

Date

From Dcstudents

Regards,

Marco
