When using the dbt Semantic Layer in a [dbt Mesh](/best-practices/how-we-mesh/mesh-1-intro) setting, we recommend the following: | ||
|
||
- You have one global project that contains your Semantic Layer configurations. | ||
- Then as you build your Semantic Layer, you can cross reference dbt models across your various projects or packages to create your semantic models using the [two-argument `ref` function](/reference/dbt-jinja-functions/ref#ref-project-specific-models)( `ref('project_name', 'model_name')`). |

Notice that in the `model` parameter, we're using the `ref` function to reference the `fct_orders` model in the `jaffle_finance` project. |
