Hi all, We have four fact tables which are consistent of common key but remaining all others fields are different and all these four fact tables used two dimensions tables commonly.please suggest to create data model approach in this scenario?

[Anil_Babu_Samineni]

In fact, 4 data models is not a practical matter. You need to arrange from 4 to 2 fact tables using Joins first and then from 2 fact tables i would think more on Bridge table.

Hi,

I'd say join those 4 tables into 1 table.

Cheers,

Luis

I would say concatenate these four tables would be a good choice , script like this

Load * from A;

Concatenate

Load * from B;

Concatenate

Load * from C;

Concatenate

Load * from D;

you will get some Null values in uncommon fields, but it will be easy to deal with in frontend

Hi, I should've elaborated more:

Once the 4 fact tables are loaded you could do the following:

AllTables:

NoConcatenate

Load * Resident Table1;

Join Load * Resident Table2;

Join Load * Resident Table3;

Join Load * Resident Table4;

Drop Table Table1;

Drop Table Table2;

Drop Table Table3;

Drop Table Table4;

first way- You can Concatenate all 4 fact tables or by

second way- You need to create Link Table with composite key and list all common fields in link table.

And link dimension table to Link table.
