creating a measure to multiply two columns from two different tables

Hi All,

 

Can someone please tell me how I can create a measure that multiplies two columns from two different tables which have a many to many relationship.

 

In Matrix view i am able to get correct answers for each of the cells but the subtotal is coming out to be wrong for both row and column level.

 

I have a strict condition of using a measure only and not a calculated column.

 Hi @Anoushka_pbi ,

 You may want to create a bridge table to avoid the many to many relationship. Here is some additional information:
