RE: Using Aliases and Contexts together to resolve a loop
If it is a loop we have to use alias the loop is not resolved by alias then we can go for context.we dont use context because the end user is not familiar with the technical terms like context he is in a dilama to choose which context he had to select.

Yes but most cases contexts are the better solutions for resolve the loops why because these are past accessing and performance.

Use contexts to group the related schemas and use aliases only when one table can have multiple meanings such as a Sold To Customer versus a Ship To Customer or a Manager who is also an Employee.

RE: Using Aliases and Contexts together to resolve a loop
If you have only one look up table in loop then use Alias .

If you have look up table that is on only one end of Join then use Alias to solve the join path problem.

If you have more than one fact table use context to solve the problem.
