CREATING A CALCULATED TABLE USING DIFFERENT TABLES (MATCHING FIELDS ISSUE)
Hi, hope you all ara doing well.
Here is an issue i´m facing when creating a calculated table in Power BI.
What i'm traying to do, is using a field from the table T_TEMP (MARKED IN BLUE) in orther to gather information from other table. However, when i´m trying to match this field (MARKED IN RED) with the field of the second table (MARKED IN BLACK), it seams that the match is not working because i´m gathering an incorrect value (in this case a date).
I would appreciate your experience to know if it is the correct way to match it.
Thanks.

You are going to have to post sample data and the expected result. See How to provide sample data in the Power BI Forum - Microsoft Power BI Community
The only assistance I can provide without that is ensure all of your data types on the columns you are joining are exactly the same. Dates won't join with a column that contains dates but is formatted ABC/123 (any) in Power Query, or text that looks like dates for example.

Please do mask sensitive data before uploading.
