Click on Data | New Data Source from the menu to select one of the saved data sources.

 

Note:  Data sources from the same database should be joined within the data source using a SQL join rather than configured with Blending.  SQL joins are more efficient since they are executed on the backend.

The primary data source is marked with a blue circle with a check mark.  Selecting the secondary data source may show all of the fields with an orange line.  This indicates that a matching dimension may exist in the primary data source.  The field may be used to join the two data sources.
