how to use Joins and Subquries in Power Bi

Hi, 

Since I am using SQL queries and whatever the output is coming from queries same thing showing in form of charts in power bi.

Since I'm new to power bi and Dax, I need help and suggestions for how to use subqueries used in SQL ( As per my thinking filtering is done) and joins in power bi and Dax.
Looking for your kind response.

 

Thanks & Regards,

 Heena Kousar

@kousar99 , Please share a problem, while we can create a table and pass it as a filter. But in DAX we do it DAX way, maybe a better solution is available

Dax vs SQL -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlvQ_SGy4iA&list=PLPaNVDMhUXGZNyKU0PgG2g3P0c6CPjMnj

 

example

measure =
var _tab = summarize(filter(Table,{empresa_id]=4),[tenant_id])
return
calculate(sum(Table[Value]), filter(Table,Table[tenant_id] in _tab))

 

 

measure =
var _tab = summarize(filter(A, [date]= date(2020,11,05) && [State] ="Step2" && [Status] = "Status" ), A[FileName])
return
calculate(countrows(A) , filter(A , [FileName] in _tab && [State] ="Step2" && [Status] = "Status" ))

 

 

measure =
var _tab = summarize(filter(all(users), users[usermail] in values(users[usermail]) || users[businessrecipient] in values(users[usermail])),users[businessunit])
return
calculate(countrows(masterlist), filter(masterlist, masterlist[businessunit] in _tab))
