Hi @kannanAhammed ,

Please correct me if I wrongly understood your question.

I have combined the three tables with dax .

Table = DISTINCT(UNION(ALL(A[AssectName]),ALL(B[AssectName]),ALL(C[AssectName])))

 

Then add three columns in combined table , like this:

AssectName A = SWITCH(TRUE(),'Table'[AssectName] in VALUES('A'[AssectName]),"Yes","No")

AssectName B = SWITCH(TRUE(),'Table'[AssectName] in VALUES('B'[AssectName]),"Yes","No")

AssectName C = SWITCH(TRUE(),'Table'[AssectName] in VALUES('C'[AssectName]),"Yes","No")

 

The effect is as shown:

I was able to get it to work with this 

AssectName A= if(ISBLANK(LOOKUPVALUE('A'[AssectName],'A'[AssectName],newtable[AssectName])),"No","Yes")

Thanks Alisa, 

This is what I am looking for but I am TableA is not comming up in the expression. 

AssectName A = SWITCH(TRUE(),'TableA'[AssectName] in VALUES('A'[AssectName]),"Yes","No")

What i was trying is right clicking on the CombinedTable (newly created) -> add new column -> and add the dax function you have shown. 

But the only referance to the table that is shown is CombinedTable created via below expression

CombinedTable=
SUMMARIZE (
UNION ( VALUES ( 'A'[AssectName] ), VALUES ( 'B'[AssectName]), 'C 'Assets (Computers)'[AssectName]) ),
[AssectName]

@kannanAhammed , Not very clear. You need create a bridge/dimension table

 

new Table= distinct(union(distinct(TableA[AssectName ]),distinct(TableB[AssectName ]),distinct(TableC[AssectName ])))

 

or

 

New Table =

distinct(union(all(TableA[AssectName ]),all(TableB[AssectName ]),all(TableC[AssectName ])))

Thank you, but I have already done that.

Now what i need is to create 3 fields with yes or no to show if the value in "AssectName Combined" exist is in Table A, or Table B or Table C.  If exists then "Yes" if not them "No". see below for details.

 

AssectName CombinedAssectName AAssectName BAssectName C
Name 1YesNoNo
Name 2NoYesNo
Name 3NoNoYes
