Combine 2 Fact Tables With a Date Table?!

[7ballp25]

I have 1 fact table who's data is in direct query with sql server = this has 2018-2022 data 

I created another table using Dax Union and row function - and used a few forecasting measures to get projections for 2023-2026.

I created another table that has one column - the combo of dates from table 1 and table 2

Please See Photo Below. there's no relationships set up yet, please help - this is very time sensitive, and I'm ready to accept solutions asap.

Hi, @7ballp25 

You can try the following methods.

Table:

Date = CALENDAR(MIN('Table 1'[Date]),MAX('Table 2'[Date]))

According to your description, Hist Sales and Projected Sales should both be Measure, I simulated it briefly and hope it fits your situation.

Measure:

forecasted sales measure = SUM('Table 2'[Projected Sales])

historical sales measure = SUM('Table 1'[Hist Sales])

Sales = [historical sales measure]+[forecasted sales measure]

Is this the result you expect?

HI @7ballp25 

Create a new table with DAX, and use UNION formula, like this:

New Table = 
UNION('Table 1','Table 2')

Output:

Close, @VahidDM ... here's the issue with that. Table 1 table has it's own measure for total sales. Call it Historical Sales Measure. 

Table 2 is a dax table, and it has it's own unique "Total Projected Sales" measure based on CAGR of the most current year sales. 

I did the UNION, however, when i try to combine both historical sales measure + forecasted sales measure ...all rows in the union table you sugguest display the total 170.... reference new picture i added
