Custom Column

If Table 1 has a common feild as table two then bring third column from Table two in Table 1.

IF Table1(ID) = Table2(ID)

Than Return Table2(Name)

Not able to create direct relationship due to having indirect relationship between both the tables.

Hi @nmbl ,

 

According to your statement, I know there is no relationship between two tables. I suggest you to try code as below to achieve your goal.

Name from Table 2 =
/*Workaround 1: If you have one name for one ID*/
CALCULATE (
    MAX ( Table2[Name] ),
    FILTER (
        Table2,
        Table2[ID] = EARLIER ( Table1[ID] )
    ) /*Workaround 2: If you have multiple names for one ID
CONCATENATEX(FILTER(Table2,Table2[ID] = EARLIER(Table1[ID])),Table2[Name],",")*/
)

Result is as below.

Hi @nmbl 

You can use Lookup function in DAX expression as below,

column1 = Lookup(table2, Table2(ID), Table(1)ID, Table2(Name)

Thanks!
