Modeling asof dimension

igorgois_ — Fri, 04 May 2018 12:37:33 GMT

I am struggling in a model, maybe someone here can help me

Imagine that I have a sales fact table:

Date | ID_employee | ID_store | Sales

And I have a employee dimension:

ID_employee | ID_store | Name | Role

There are two possible roles: salesperson and supervisor

A salesperson has only one store.

The supervisor can have N stores. But his id_store is acctualy the id_store from the back office. There arent rows in the fact table with id_employee or id_store from a supervisor. I also have a table with the id_employee from the supervisors and the real stores they are responsible for.

The main goal here is get a table with:

ID_employee | sum(sales)

Thanks in advance

Would you be able to share some raw data with the expected output?

05/04/2018 | 3 | a | 10

05/04/2018 | 4 | a | 10

05/04/2018 | 5 | b | 10

05/04/2018 | 6 | b | 10

05/04/2018 | 7 | b | 10

05/04/2018 | 8 | b | 10

05/04/2018 | 9 | c | 10

05/04/2018 | 10 | c | 10

05/04/2018 | 11 | c | 10

05/04/2018 | 12 | c | 10

14 | z | Supervisor2 | supervisor

a, b, c are stores

z is back office

Supervisor to stores:

6 | 10

7 | 10
