Looking for a DAX Function to bring data from another table
Dear DAX Experts!
I am new to Power BI DAX and I would need your help!
I need to find a way to bring data stored in table "DIM 2" to the table "FACT 1".
Both tables are not directly linked. Our data model looks something like this:
I have tried the RELATED function, but this only works for DIM 1, which is directly linked to FACT 1.
Is there any function that would solve the above scenario?
Thank you in advance for any guidance!
Calc Column DIM2 = CALCULATE ( SELECTEDVALUE ( DIM2[Col1] ), CROSSFILTER ( FACT1[SK_COMMONDIM], COMMON_DIM[SK_COMMONDIM], BOTH ), CROSSFILTER ( FACT2[SK_DIM2], DIM2[SK_DIM2], BOTH ) )However, this is not conclusive as one row is not sufficient to verify the data structure of a table.

Hi tamerj1 , Sorry, not sure I underestand the question.
I am trying to create a calculated column in table FACT1, containing a column in DIM2. The calculated column has to be stored in FACT1. The question is whether there is a "smart" function in Power BI that allows this, such as RELATED (which is not working for this scenario).
