Question 10

In a star schema with four tables named Sales, Customer, Date, and Product, you have sales data. Purchase and shipping dates are listed in the Sales table. Although you will most frequently utilize the purchase date, you may also examine the data using both dates separately and jointly. To support the analysis, you must create an imported dataset. The model size and number of queries against the data source must be kept to a minimum. What data modeling approach should you employ?

Accepted Answer

For the date of purchase, create an active relationship between Sales and Date, and for the date of shipment, create an inactive relationship.

Answer

Use Microsoft Power BI's Auto Date/Time feature instead of importing the Date table.

Answer

Use the Power Query duplicate of the Date query and the active relationships between the two Date tables.

Answer

Create active relationships between Sales and both Date tables in the modeling view using a reference query on the Date table in Power Query.
