creating table from multiple other tables

I have a report with multiple data tables. Four of them have a column that is named agency with similar data. I want to take the distinct values from all four tables and create a new table with a single agency column that has distinct values from the other four tables. Basically I want to do what union does with more then two tables. Can someone explain how I do this?

  • Hi, welcome to the community, try this: Go to the modelling tab on the ribbon and click create new table. In the formula bar use the DAX expression

    =
    SUMMARIZE (
        UNION (
            ALL ( Table1[UniqueValue] ),
            ALL ( Table2[UniqueValue] ),
            ALL ( Table3[UniqueValue] ),
            ALL ( Table4[UniqueValue] )
        ),
        [UniqueValue]
    )

          [UniqueValue]
      )

       

       

      What is this unique value line at the end supposed to be?
