Create calculated column based on info in another table

Hey everyone,

I have two related tables, one with person's information another with all transactions for all people. The tables have the following structure:
 
Person's Info

NameCountryAddress 
MichaelPolandAddress 1
MaxSpainAddress 2
MonaCroatiaAddress 3


Transaction Info

NameBought fromDate
MichaelAmazon01.01.2020
MichaelCoffeeshop 01.02.2020
MaxAmazon01.01.2020
MaxeBay01.01.2020


I want to add a conditional column "Drinks coffee" to the "Person's info" table which will say "Yes" if a person bought from "Coffeeshop" at any date, otherwise "No". [So, in this example Michael will have "Yes", Max and Mona will have "No"]

Thank you in advance!

Hi @Anonymous 

If you have a relationship through "Name":

New Column =
IF (
    CALCULATE (
        COUNT ( TransactionT[Name] ),
        TransactionT[Bought from] = "Coffeeshop"
    ) > 0,
    "Yes",
    "No"
)

Hi,

 

I am not sure how to do this on DAX. But you can merge tables in Power Query and then create a conditionnal column.
