Average weight across tables

image.png

I have the following tables, and I need to find the average weight all the IDs sold in Table 2 based off the recorded weights stored in table 2. How do I do this?

Can you explain this a bit more with some data? I do not see any recorded weights in Table2. Why is there a bi-directional crossfilter between the two?

You could merge the two tables together into a new table in query editor. Then all the fields will be available in new table. I could be analyzing your situation incorrectly though. 

Thanks for your reply.

This is a mocked up model of what I'm trying to accomplish, and unfortunately, in my actual use case, table 2 is too large to accomodate additional columns (file size is large enough and I'm trying to keep it from growing our of control).

Hi @Adam1125,

 

Since we can't see you actual situation. Could you please share us some sample data and its corresponding expected result if possible?  Otherwise we don't know where to start.

 

And you want to find the average weight all the IDs sold in Table 2 based off the recorded weights stored in table 2. Then how could we know which IDs are sold? What's the logic to make this calculation?

 

Thanks,
Xi Jin.

Hi @v-xjiin-msft

Here's what some sample data of what the tables might look like, and what I'm trying to accomplish.
