Dear Team,
I have a Data Model that contains a Many To Many Relationship and a Bridge Table. Here is the picture of my Data Model: https://people.highline.edu/mgirvin/YouTubeExcelIsFun/01-DataModelWithBridgeTable.jpg
I have started to create an Expanded Table Diagram. Here is the picture of my Expanded Table: https://people.highline.edu/mgirvin/YouTubeExcelIsFun/02-ExpandedTables.jpg
Is the Expanded Table Diagram correct?
More specifically, since the Expanded Columns in a Native Table are the result of a One-To-Many Relationship, where the One Side Columns move to the Many Side Table, in my diagram, the dBook columns flow from the One Side to the fSales Many Side, but do the columns from the Bridge Table also flow, as Expanded Columns, to the fSales table? I can't make sense of this because that would mean that if the columns from the Bridge Table flowed to the fSales, they would have to move from the Many Side to the One Side!?!?
Can someone help me create the correct Expanded Table Diagram for a Many-To-Many Relationship and a Bridge Table?
