Answer Posted / santhosh kumar s
When dimension is joined with two fact tables this stitched
Query takes place.
EX: Say table Dim_Product ,fact_retail sales and fact_sales
If we write query for this like dim_product inner join with
fact_retail sales and inner join with fact_sales
Result:We will get wrong data(will get multiplied with one
record with all the records in other table)
To over come this:
Should write two seperate queries and should join them .
Result:Will get required data
