We're putting together our data warehouse, and I had a questions regarding
design of fact tables for our situation. We have invoices and payments to
those invoices...would I include all information in one fact table, or would
I separate them into two tables? If I do two tables, can I include two fact
tables in an OLAP cube?
Thanks in advance.You can use a view...
it's even better to use a partitioned view...

It’s really depending how often you will be analyzing invoices and payment
s
together.
Sometimes - you can built two cubes and join them into virtual cube.
Very often - you should include all information in your fact table design.
