I'm looking out for a way to make the relationship between Order and Contract, 1-1, The relationship between both, is optional, but still, I'm unsure if I need to add a custom field to Contract that points to the corresponding order, of if there is a way to declarative restrict the relation, and also allowing for a direct query without the nested sub query in SOQL.



Any Idea?

          Yes, You can do that using standard Salesforce Functionality




          1. Create a Field on Order Named as Contract_Unqiue__c and make it as unique field.

          2. Create a WF rule on Order and when the order is created , copy the ContractID to the field Contract_Unique__c


          Thats it done.



          WHen a new order is created for that contract, it will allow you to save it, and if you try to add another order it throw Unique field constraint exception. Thus this allows you to only have 1-1 Relationship ie 1 contract should have atmost 1 order.

          What visual should I use to simply compare current year value vs last year in Power BI desktop

          0 I have column SubToBind that shows current year ratio and column PY SubToBind which shows previous year ratio. How can I simply create a card that would be displaying them both in a nice way? Something like that: I cannot achieve that with regular card, I also tried Card with States by OKViz but also unable to see both values. In KPI visual - I dont like the word "Goal", it will confuse end users. Are there any cards or other visuals that would do the job?
