Using Dimension tables only without having to answer for context


Here is my scenario:

 

I have 3 tables, hierarchy table, date table and location table, so join between these 3 tables are present in almost all of the context (around 10 facts in the universe so far). Now I want to use just dimensions from hierarchy, date and location table, when I try to do that, it asks for a context because these joins are a part of multiple contexts. Here is what I have done:

 

I have created a shortcut join between date and hierarchy table, now when I try to bring in just date and something from hierarchy, it works fine, does not ask me a context. I created a shortcut join for hierarchy and location table as well but it does not work, ebverytime, I try to bring in something from location, it creates a seperate query. For example:

 

Slect date from datedim - Query 1

Select location from locdim - Query 2

 

or

 

Sleect region frm hier

select location from from locdim - Query 2

 

but date and region are fine and creating only 1 query, which is expected.

 

Can anyone please suggest a solution or workaround? Thank you

Ansh
