Parameter two different tables

Hi,

I have two tables which have diffferent number of columns and names.
I would like to create a parameter which switches between the tables and display the same calculated dimensions. 

Any solution due to the fact that it's not possible to append them alltogher with a reference column (Table A , Table B)?

Thank you in advance for your support.

Hi,

If the tables had the same number of columns and matching column names, I would append them to each other and add a column to indicate the source table (Table A or Table B).

My idea is to map a third table to both tables by adding a reference column to each one. The new table would then use those reference names to establish the relationship.

Do you think this approach is feasible?

Thanks!

You mention different names, and then you want to display the ones that are the same?

 

Please provide a more detailed explanation of what you are aiming to achieve. What have you tried and where are you stuck?
