Using Power BI and the table visual and needing to show fields from both the fact and dimension tables. When I add my fields to the table visual they shpw fine but the dimension fields in the filter pane have a 1 next to each value instead of the count of rows in the equivalent fact table. If i import a fact table with left joins then it shows the right count of values does anyone have a way how to best show columns from dim/fact tables in a table visual.
p.s I don't see the point in a star schema when there is these kind of problems appearing.
Sample Data
Sales Table
sales_id sales sales_person date_sold product_id
1 5000 john 10/01/2022 1
2 7000 john 10/01/2022 2
3 5000 bill 10/01/2022 1
4 7000 bill 11/01/2022 2
5 5000 john 11/02/2022 1
product table
product_id product category_id
1 kitchen units kitchen
2 floor tiles flooring
expected/desired output
table visual
sales_id sales sales_person date_sold product
1 5000 john 10/01/2022 kitchen units
2 7000 john 10/01/2022 floor tiles
3 5000 bill 10/01/2022 kitchen units
4 7000 bill 11/01/2022 floor tiles
5 5000 john 11/02/2022 kitchen units
click on table visual then view filter pane
example of two fields
sales_person
john 3
bill 2
product
kitchen units 1
floor tiling 1
Why does the above product field show only a one? I understand its because its a dim field but would prefer to see
product
kitchen units 3
floor tiles 2

Also new to power bi. But maybe you could get the name from Product and count from Sales.
For this to work you need table relation:
