First you have to create a relationship as pic below.Capture.JPG

 

then write these measures

 

Growth A Measure =
SUMX (
    'Sales Table';
    'Sales Table'[Sale] * 'Sales Table'[Pro]
        * RELATED ( 'Growth Table'[Growth A ] )
)

and

 

Growth B Measure =
SUMX (
    'Sales Table';
    'Sales Table'[Sale] * 'Sales Table'[Pro]
        * RELATED ( 'Growth Table'[Growth B] )
)

and the result is

Thank you, but I faced a little problem for some reason I was getting divided by two.  I just added ' *2 '  at the end. It works.

Hey,

basically you can achieve something similar like VLOOKUP from Excel by using the DAX formula LOOKUPVALUE ...

 

and because (v1 + v2 + ...) * y is the same as v1 * y + v2 * y + ...

 

you can create a calculated column in table1

 

Assuming the 1st table is called table1 and the 2nd table is called table2 the DAX for this calculated column in table1 may look like this:

 

calc column in table1 = 
'table1'[Sale] * LOOKUPVALUE('table2'[Growth A], 'table2'[Name], 'table1'[Name])

 

To create a similar column in table2 the DAX gets a little more complex

calc column in table2 =
var currentName = 'table2'[Name]
return 
'table2'[Growth A]*
CALCULATE(
    SUM('table1'[Sale])
    ,FILTER(
        ALL('table1')
        ,'table1'[Name] = currentName
    )
)

 

Hopefully this is what you are looking for!

 

Regards,

Tom
