    This can be best done in Power Query. Place the following M code in a blank query to see the steps.See it all at work in the attached file.

    let
        Source = Table.SelectColumns(Table1,{"POLNUM"}),
        #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "Total cols", each Table.ColumnCount(Table1), Int64.Type),
        #"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom", "Cols match", each 
        let 
            t1_ = Record.ToList(Table1{[POLNUM = [POLNUM]]}),
            t2_ = Record.ToList(Table2{[POLNUM = [POLNUM]]}),
            aux_= List.Numbers(0,[Total cols]),
            res_ = List.Sum(List.Transform(aux_, each Number.From(t1_{_}=t2_{_})))
        in 
          res_, Int64.Type),
        #"Added Custom2" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom1", "Cols mismatch", each [Total cols] - [Cols match], Int64.Type),
        #"Added Custom3" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom2", "Cols matching %", each [Cols match]/[Total cols], Percentage.Type)
    in
        #"Added Custom3"

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Based on your description, you can create some measures as follows.

    Total Columns(Inc Pol Num Column) = 5


    Columns Mismatch =

    var x1=IF(MAX('Table1'[POLNUM])<>SELECTEDVALUE(Table2[POLNUM]),1,0)

    var x2=IF(MAX('Table1'[DATE])<>SELECTEDVALUE(Table2[DATE]),x1+1,x1)

    var x3=IF(MAX('Table1'[BROKER])<>SELECTEDVALUE(Table2[BROKER]),x2+1,x2)

    var x4=IF(MAX('Table1'[CITY])<>SELECTEDVALUE('Table2'[CITY]),x3+1,x3)

    return

    IF(MAX('Table1'[AMOUNT])<>SELECTEDVALUE('Table2'[AMOUNT]),x4+1,x4)


    Columns Match = [Total Columns(Inc Pol Num Column)]-[Columns Mismatch]


    % Matching = DIVIDE([Columns Match],[Total Columns(Inc Pol Num Column)])

     

    Result:

     

    Hope that's what you were looking for.

    Best Regards,

    Yuna

      AlB - This solution is working as excepted . But the problem was getting an error after mutiple runs.

       

      Preview.Error: The current preview value is too complex to display.
