Calculated table doesn't appear as a merge option

Hello everyone,

 

I created a Crossjoined table with a DAX formula, when I try to merge this table it doesn't appear as a possible merging option.

I would be updating one of the tables I used to create the crossjoined one, do you know if there is another way I can merge this two (crossjoine table and a excel database) besides the Merging Option from the Query Editor?

 

Thank you

 

Diego G.

Correct, because you created the table in DAX, Power Query doesn't know anything about that table. You will need to use something like NATURALINNERJOIN or NATURALLEFTOUTERJOIN functions, which can be a little challenging. I recommend @Phil_Seamark's insightful guidance and examples in his fantastic new book, Beginning DAX with Power BI: The SQL Pro’s Guide to Better Business Intelligence.

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

Thank you very much!
