    Hi prashpokala ,

     

    We can create a same column in each table and append them as new table to meet your requirement.

     

    1. Create a same name column in each table.

     

     

     

    2. Then we can append the tables as new.

     

     

    3. Then we can put the custom column in legend to distinguish each dataset.

     

     

    If you have any question, please kindly ask here and we will try to resolve it.

    BTW, pbix as attached.

     

    Best regards,
