I have 2 Items is duplicated in the report this items is shared across the Organization (4 org IDs) and shows is it zero stock or not

also, I create a data item to detect if its zero in this (A) ORG or not and did this to all organization (B) and (C)

Note: (ORG C) is a TWO Stock have different ORG ID location is deferent but they are one


the issue I'm having is:

there is Two item when I run the report xls. give me duplicate result


what I did is I but each Organization in SQL Query then I join them with 0n = 0n relation

1- (ORG A)JOINED WITH (ORG B) CREATING query Named MED

then some of the data items I need to not duplicated data and avoided null values I did this condition and give it name Planner code
 
case
when(    [PLANNER_CODE_ORG_A] is null)then([PLANNER_CODE_ORG_B])
else ([PLANNER_CODE_ORG_A])
end




Then I joined the query (MED) with (ORG C) and did the same as above to include all the Organization Planner code

Note: all the columns in the queries are the same



Report Duplication Issue:

I am encountering a duplication issue in my report concerning two items that are shared across four organizations (ORG A, ORG B, ORG C, and ORG D

*ORG C &D are the same but different location have different ORG ID *).

These items indicate whether stock levels are zero or not.



Summary of the Approach:


SQL Query Structure:

I structured my SQL queries to avoid duplication:

Joined ORG A with ORG B, creating a query named MED. with relation 0n = 0n

To handle potential null values and prevent blank in the report, I implemented a condition for the required columns example planner code:

CASE
  WHEN [PLANNER_CODE_ORG_A] IS NULL THEN [PLANNER_CODE_ORG_B]
  ELSE [PLANNER_CODE_ORG_A]
END AS Planner_Code

then Final Join:
The MED query was then joined with ORG C, applying the same logic to include the planner codes from all organizations.


Current Challenge:
Despite these measures, the report still generates duplicate results for two items when exporting to XLS.
