creating a table where the values are results of aggregate calculations of columns from other tables

Let's say I have Table 1, which has 10 columns, and multiple rows.  I also have Table 2, which has 8 columns, and 1 row.  

 

I want to create a Table 3, such that the value at Row 1 Column 1 in Table 3 would be: ('the aggregate maximum of Column 3 in Table 1' divided by 'the value of Row 1 Column 1 in Table 2' (or 'the aggregate sum of Column 1 in Table 2', which would amount to the same thing)).

 

Then, the next value, at Row 2 Column 1 in Table 3, would be: ('the aggregate maximum of Column 4 in Table 1' divided by 'the aggregate sum of Column 2 in Table 2).

 

And so on, until we've gotten to Column 10 in Table 1 and Column 8 in Table 2.  

 

The reason I want it done like this is because I want to make a conditionally formatted matrix visual of Table 3, which I can then go back and filter based on those first two unused columns in Table 1.  So, this would have to be done such that filtering based on Table 1 would actively update the contents of Table 3.  

 

Also, I'm not sure it makes a difference for the question here, but there are actually about 1000 columns in Tables 1 & 2.

 

Is this possible?  Or, is there a better way to do what I am envisioning here?  

 

Thanks

Hi @mromanel ,

 

The calculation logic seems a bit complicated. I doubt this can be down in Power BI.

Anyway, it's better to share some sample data so that we can try for it.

 

Best Regards,

Jay
