Creating a report model based on related entities

sql server reporting services: I created a report model that has two entities. Both entities, in the SQL
terminology, can have an inner join. Now the two tables do not have any
foreign key relationship or anything. ..

Now when i open the report builder and select a field from one of the entity
the other one just dissapears away. What do i need to do to be able to select
fields from both entities ?

It is not visible because when you select an entity then that becomes a
primary entity and remaining is not visible. Now the entities related to the
selected or the primary will be visible. As you said that there is no
relation so it doesn't appear on the list and it wont appear. So you need to
have a relation to be able to select other fields as well.

I have a smilar problem. I have a single data source view which contains 3
tables. Each table is a completely denormalized (like a spreadsheet) dataset
from a particular business system. Within the datasource view editor I
created primary keys on each table and established relationships between each
table. However, when I try to create a report in report builder, as soon as
add an entity from one table to my report, the other 2 tables disappear.
What do I have to do to prevent the tables from disappearing? Please be
specific since I am fairly new to the Ad Hoc component of reporting services.
Thanks.
