Calculated column with filter on 2 different tables

Hi experts!

I have a transactional table that shows me the sales for each article for each week.

Now I would like to get the number of orders for each article. This is stored in a different table. This I would like to add as a calculated column into the first table.

How can I add this value into the first table?

Would you do that with a CALCULATE(SUM(..), FILTER Calendar, Filter Order?

Or how would you do that?

hi @joshua1990 

supposing two tables are related, typically it works like:

Column = COUNTROWS(RELATEDTABLE(OrderTable))

@FreemanZ : Thanks, but both tables are linked to a dimensional table that contains all articles and then also to a calendar. 

hi @joshua1990 

In your transaction table, what if you try to add a column like:

Column = 
VAR _article = TransactionTable[article]
RETURN
COUNTROWS( FILTER( OrderTable, OrderTable[article] = _article) )

It depends on your data model and relationships. Please share a screenshot or clarify.
