Entity Framework. View return duplicate records

Question

I use Entity Framework that contains view. And I have query:

var data = this.context.vwRevenues
    .Where(x => x.revenue >= 0);
    .OrderByDescending(x => x.year)
    .ThenByDescending(x => x.month)
    .Take(10)
    .ToList();

This query returns set of entities, but 1st entity equals 5th.

data[0] == data[4] // true

I take sql script for this query from sql tracer and run it into SQL Management Studio, it returns different records.

Answer 1

As per @Giovane Answer's

We had the same problem in our system with Entity Framework dealing with views. Try using ROW_NUMBER () OVER () SQL to create a column with unique values​​, but did not work.

I did the same thing but to make it work i need to open the EDMX model and then select a this column as an Entity Key.

Then it will work

There is a very good article on this

Duplicate Records

The articles most important line is:

When including a view in your Entity Model, the model seems to simply use the first not-nullable columns as primary key (as all columns used in the primary key should be non-nullable).
