Hi,
I would truly appreciate some help with the following challenge. I have a total val for a year and the percentage split over the period. I would like to combine these where Table_1 would have the total val for the different items split according to the months percentages in Table_2. Then the output would look something like Table_3.
Table_1
Item | Val |
216 | 150000 |
250 | 215000 |
315 | 175000 |
… |
|
Table_2
Month | %_Trend |
2016-01 | 7.02% |
2016-02 | 6.90% |
2016-03 | 7.43% |
2016-04 | 7.75% |
2016-05 | 7.66% |

2016-10 | 10.56% |
2016-11 | 7.90% |

Any assistance would be truly appreciated.
Hi:
Try with;
Modeling - New Table
Cruce = CROSSJOIN(Table1,Table2)
After that created a calculated column with
NVal = Cruce[Val]*Cruce[%_Trend]

Hi @Vvelarde,
I am a bit new to Power BI, could you kindly elaborate or provide a sample Power BI file?
Hi @Vvelarde,
Thank you for the file, it works on the data thank you. Would it be possible to add something like this to a measure instead of a table? Reason for this is that my actual data has many fields and currently getting and error “The expression refers to multiple columns. Multiple columns cannot be converted to a scalar value.”?
Hi,
I have solved this problem using Query Editor. Download the file from here.
Hi @Ashish_Mathur,
Whn looking at the attached document, the two tables are only in two tables, however the % split for the months is not present?
Hi @norbi,
Table_1 has the final answer. Table_2 is where you will see the monthly split.
