Cube with more that one facts Table

Hello,

I made an illustration, that describes the szenario. There is one Master, one dimension and a second facts table. The Master Table holds up all objects. Sometimes I have additional Information for some objects in Master Table. They are stored in extra tables like the table Optional_facts_for_villas.

My question: How can I combine these two fact tables in Cube Designer without doing a Full outer Join in my Database?

The reason why I want it this way, not all optional_fact_tables are necessary now for OLAP, but maybe later. So, I thought, easiest way would be, adding them later to the cube, without changing the database.
Sorry for my english, its not the best :)

SilasYou forgot to mention which version of SQL Server you are using. As far as I remember this should be possible by using SQL Server 2005, but not SQL Server 2000.|||Ok, it's 2000. I think I will use the full outer join ;)
