    I have created a sample for your reference, please have a check.

    Measure = 
VAR emname =
    MAX ( Actual[EmployeeName] )
RETURN
    SUMX (
        Actual,
        CALCULATE (
            SUM ( Forecast[value] ),
            FILTER ( Forecast, Forecast[EmployeeName] = emname )
        )
    )

     

    Pbix as attached. If it doesn't meet your requirement, Kindly share your sample data and excepted result to me if you don't have any Confidential Information. Please upload your files to One Drive and share the link here.
