Sum using two relation tables

I'm looking for a DAX formula that calculates the sum using two other tables. One table shows how often a certain code occurs. And in a dimension table is the duration of this code. In the example below you can see what my question is exactly:

Hi @brief001 

 

Try this:

Measure =
VAR _Dur =
    ADDCOLUMNS(
        'Table 2',
        "Dur1",
            [Amount]
                * ( LOOKUPVALUE( 'Table 3'[Duration], 'Table 3'[Code], 'Table 2'[Code] ) )
    )
RETURN
    SUMX( _Dur, [Dur1] )
