Filter not providing intended results

Question

Newbie here to Answers. I am trying to filter the results of a column to the values in another request. However, the relationship "is equal to any" is not the same as "equals to" so it returns all possibilities. I get the intended results fine, when I write a simple sql query. last_ibs_load table would be the separate request that I abse my filter on
Select a.Region, a.Region_descrip, b.LOAD_START_DTTM, b.LOAD_END_DTTM, c.date_of_data
from region_dim a, IBS_LOAD_DASHBOARD_START b, last_ibs_load c
where a.region = b.region and
c.region = b.region and
b.date_of_data = c.date_of_data
REGION,REGION_DESCRIP,LOAD_START_DTTM,LOAD_END_DTTM,DATE_OF_DATA

When I try and duplicate this by adding filters in Answers it returns too many rows because it tries a "Select In"
- I solved the issue by changing the other report I was referring to into a dim table with composite key.

Answer 1

Hey,
Can you recheck your query once again.
There is no join between the table a and table c.
// where a.region = b.region and
c.region = b.region and
b.date_of_data = c.date_of_data
