calculated measure between to fact tables related with a dimension table

Hello  ,

I am having issue creating a calculated measure between to fact tables related with a dimension table .

relationship 1: dim company key + item key = fact sales item key+fact sales company key

relationship 2: dim item key = fact cost item key

Items can be sold in each company but the cost is unique for each item cross companies.

I need to calculate unit cost * quantity

sum(unit cost) * sum(quantity) result to be correct at item key level but the total is wrong , 

please advice

hi @Gilad ,

try write your measure like:

Cost Measure = 
SUMX(
    sales,
    sales[quantity]*RELATED(cost[Unit Cost])
)
