DAX reference of a date in another table

Hi,

 

I need some help referencing a date in another table.

 

I currently have 2 tables (there are more, but not related to my query):

 

ForecastPushTable:

Case number column

Value column

Forecast column

 

MetricsDateTable:

Metrics date Column 

 

The ForecastPushTable has many rows, but the MetricsDateTable only has one cell, which is basically the date the report was pulled.

 

I wish to create another calculated column in the ForecastPushTable and if the 'Forecast Column' date is greater than 'Metrics date column' date to return the "Value", otherwise return 'zero'.

 

The issue I am having, is that I am unable to create a calculated column in the ForecastPushTable and reference the metrics date Column.

 

Any ideas how to overcome this?

You should be able to use LOOKUPVALUE or MAX/MIN, like this:

 

Column = MAX('MetricsDateTable'[Metrics date Column])
