This cumulative hours is created with the measure:

Cumulative Hours =
VAR CurrentDate = MAX('Calendar'[Date])
RETURN
    CALCULATE(
        SUM('Plan Task per Date'[Hours to do per workday]),
        FILTER(
            ALLSELECTED('Calendar'),
            'Calendar'[Date] <= CurrentDate
            ))
 
But I also have table with the capacity to do the work per working day.
OrganisationTeamCapacity per day
Category ATeam 13,84
Category BTeam 129,38
Category CTeam 34,8
Category CTeam 131,78
Category CTeam 68,64
Category DTeam 313,44
Category DTeam 414,4
Category DTeam 517,74
Category DTeam 711,64

 

Now I would like to use this capacity table to see the amount of hours of work and the capacity. The difficulty is there is no relation between the capacity table and the calendar table (date). 

How can this problem be solved?

@JC2022 , Try to create new measure for Cumulative Capacity

Cumulative Capacity =
VAR CurrentDate = MAX('Calendar'[Date])
VAR WorkingDays =
CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS('Calendar'),
FILTER(
ALLSELECTED('Calendar'),
'Calendar'[Date] <= CurrentDate
)
)
RETURN
SUMX(
'CapacityTable',
'CapacityTable'[Capacity per day] * WorkingDays
)

 

Then subtract it Cumulative Hours from it

 

Remaining Capacity = [Cumulative Capacity] - [Cumulative Hours]
