    In this scenario, you should have linked column between those two tables. Then you can go to Query Editor and use "Merge Queries" to combine the tables together. See: Shape and combine data in Power BI Desktop

     

    Another way is using DAX method. If you have built the relationships between these two tables, you can use RELATED() function to JOIN tables. Without relationship built, you can also use LOOKUPVALUE() to lookup that columns you need. For more information, please see: From SQL to DAX: Joining Tables.

marisap You can do this by going to query editor in power bi desktop, right click your original table query and click Reference. Then add conditional columns to new created queries and when you hit refresh your original table will be refreshed and so will be the table with reference query.
