Power BI
Needs VotesProvide multiple column Join functions and different Join cardinality

When we set relationship, only can be performed for a single column in PBI Desktop. i think PBI can provide multiple column Join functions and different Join cardinality (= , >= , <= or between) in the future.

YES - This is a must! This is a very common use case and should be basic functionality. SAP BusinessObjects has nailed this functionality with their universes.
RE: Provide multiple column Join functions and different Join cardinality
Why can't power BI have the same capability as SQL for joining tables, i.e. be able to do left / right / full joins using multiple columns as relationships?It seems like Microsoft have restricted the join capability to make it simple for the users, however what happens instead is that people need to do complicated work arounds to achieve what they need to do - e.g. by making a concatenated column to join multiple fields together in two tables.

I agree as well, I'm really missing this especially with type 2 dimension tables!
