Synthetic key problem

Hi QV community,

I have a synthetic key in my model as you can see in the image attached.I know that i can resolve it by buy connecting StockCode of StockSales table to StockSalesKey is a duplicate filed of StockCode in FilteredStockRequested. As FilteredStockRequested contains only a small subset of stock codes(40 codes) it is not a major waste of resources to have this duplicate key.StockSales and StockFreeStock contain full records of stock codes about 800 But I feel this in not the most efficient solution.Any other proposals???

I have attached the granularity of the related tables as well...

Regards,
