It is not sure that you need generic keys.

Just concatenate the different fact tables, making sure that as many fields as possible are named consistently. If you then encounter a problem where the same key is used slightly differently in two fact tables, you may need generic keys. Then, see more in http://community.qlik.com/docs/DOC-3451

A link table works, but I would probably avoid that since it is slower than the alternative.

Instead I would concatenate all fact tables into one and have them share the dimension keys. If you have a mixed granularity (e.g. one fact table with product groups and another with products) I would use generic keys to fix it.
