Hi, @Paulyeo11 ,

You can append the two tables instead of merging them since they have the same number of columns.

Just make sure both tables have the column names so it will append according to your requirement.

Hope this helps!

After thinking over , i want to change my approach by Create only one PNL filed , So that i can get P&L summary table , instead of 4 seperate field , which is no so easy , hope you can take a look at below link and share with me how to get PNL field ?

@Paulyeo11 why the first column is called 1_REV_.

Isn't when these tables are combined it would be called something like category or group etc.

I would rename the first column of both the tables (to a common name) and then just append it since the rest of the columns has the common name.

Hi Parry

in order for me to get the REV amount i need to use beow expression :-

1_REV =

SWITCH(TRUE(),

'GL'[Reporting Code]>=00001 &&'GL'[Reporting Code]<=00019,"REV",

BLANK())

in order for me to get the COGS amount i need to use beow expression :-

1_COGS =

SWITCH(TRUE(),

'GL'[Reporting Code]>=00020 &&'GL'[Reporting Code]<=00049,"COGS",

BLANK())

Now i need to create table display

REV amount

COGS amount

it there a more stright forward approach ? Hope you can share with me.
