    Hi, Krishna_14hcl 

     

    I created a measure and replaced the data from Table1 with the data for the Table2 country, as shown in the following image

     

     

    Here is the DAX:

    Dynamic Sales =
VAR SelectedCountry =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table2'[Country], "All" )
RETURN
    IF (
        SelectedCountry = "All",
        SUMX ( 'Table1', 'Table1'[Sales1] ),
        CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table2'[Sales] ), 'Table2'[Country] = SelectedCountry )
    )

     

    Then create a measure to calculate the totals for Table1

     

    DAX:

    Dynamic Sales Total = SUMX('Table1','Table1'[Dynamic Sales])

    If the data is the same, you should combine these into 1 table. Use the append query option to do this. If the "Total Sales" is an actual row in your data, remove it.

    Dear Syk,


    thanks for sharing your guidance, But the condition is some different, As per requirement. I need to show Total sales in a card from the  first table of country name, but when I use slicer , it should filter data  from second table like 
    country name canada is 500 as actual value, instead of canada (340 that is some overlap sales) because in first table some data is overlapping with some criteria.

    Is it possible to show the data from other table using selectedvalue and switch like measures if yes, Please help

      Possibly.. But your data would get messy and hard to understand very quickly. Is the requirement that if there is data in table 2 for a country, you no longer need the data from table 1? If there's no data in table 2, use the data from table 1?
