This code should do it

Table 2 = 
FILTER(
    Table1,
    NOT(Table1[Invoice No.] IN VALUES(t[Invoice No.]))
)

Are they in they are in separate tables? Add a new table form Modeling Tab with the code below and adjust your table and column names 

Filtered Table = 
FILTER(
    Table1,
    Table1[ColumnA] IN VALUES(Table2[ColumnB])
)

I think this is doing the exact oppositie form what i want so it might be usefull. How can I this table but instad of getting the data that is inside table2 columnB get all the data from table1 columnA that is NOT in table2 columnB. i saw someware that the <> operator is used for not but when i try 

 

Filtered Table = 
FILTER(
    Table1,
    Table1[ColumnA] <> VALUES(Table2[ColumnB])
)

it doesnt work and i get the folowing error: A table of multiple values was supplied where a single value was expected.

@Anonymous - Perhaps:

Measure = 
  VAR __Table1 = SELECTCOLUMNS('Table","Column",[a])
  VAR __Table2 = SELECTCOLUMNS('Table","Column",[b])
RETURN
  COUNTROWS(EXCEPT(__Table1, __Table2))

Not very clear though. Not really enough information to go on, please first check if your issue is a common issue listed here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Before-You-Post-Read-This/ba-p/1116882

Also, please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.
