I need a new column in my "Facility Table" based on several If-Then logics (some from within the Facility table, some based on another table). I think this graphic is self-explanatory, but please let me know if it is not. The logic I need applied is at the bottom. I know this should be easy, but I can't wrap my head around it. Thanks in advance!

With this relationship:
the following as a calculated field seems to do the trick with your sample data:
Region (Calculated) =
SWITCH (
TRUE (),
'Facility Table'[State] = "Kansas", "KS",
LOOKUPVALUE (
'Zip Code Table'[Zip Code],
'Zip Code Table'[Zip Code], 'Facility Table'[Zip]
) = 'Facility Table'[Zip], RELATED ( 'Zip Code Table'[Region] ),
"m02"
)result:

Perfect. The Switch True() trick is pretty neat. I didn't understand it at first so I'm glad I asked for a better solution than a bunch of confusing if, thens!!
