Add column to a table based on a calculation

I have the following tables:

 

Mapping

GL numberGL nameMappingType
1GL name 1HousingP&L
2GL name 2General costsP&L

 

Share ratio based on activity

AdministrationGL numberGL nameActivityPercentage
Administration 11GL name 1Activity 160%
Administration 11GL name 1Activity 230%
Administration 11GL name 1Activity 310%

 

Transactions

GL numberGL nameAdministrationAmount
1GL name 1Administration 1100.000

 

There is a relation between mapping and transactions (both).

There is a relation between mapping and share ratio (both)

 

 

I would like to add columns to the transaction table to show the costs per activity. It would have to look like this:

 

Transactions (new)

GL numberGL nameAdministrationAmountActivity 1Activity 2Activity 3
1GL name 11100.00060.00030.00010.000

 

Can somebody please help me with the code to accomplish this as my efforts are not returning values. Could this also be done using a measure?

 

Thanks is advance for your help.

  • You can new columns like this in the transaction table. Assuming the second table is there

    Activity 1 = Transactions[Amount] * maxx(filter(activity,activity[Administration] =Transactions[Administration] 
    					&& activity[GL number] =Transactions[GL number] && activity[Activity] ="Activity 1"),activity[percent])
    					
    	
    	Activity 2 = Transactions[Amount] * maxx(filter(activity,activity[Administration] =Transactions[Administration] 
    					&& activity[GL number] =Transactions[GL number] && activity[Activity] ="Activity 2"),activity[percent])
    					
    	
    	Activity 3 = Transactions[Amount] * maxx(filter(activity,activity[Administration] =Transactions[Administration] 
    					&& activity[GL number] =Transactions[GL number] && activity[Activity] ="Activity 3"),activity[percent])
