    Hi vyny17,

     

    Here's a solution:

     

    Create a new table Table4, with the following DAX formula:

     

    Table4 =
    Var Tablea=SelectColumns('Table1',
                                                "Client",[Client],
                                               "Department",[Department],
                                               "Salesman",[Salesman]
                                              )
    Var Tableb=SelectColumns('Table2',
                                                "Client",[Client],
                                                "Department",[Department],
                                                "Salesman",[Salesman]
                                               )
    Var Tablec=SelectColumns('Table3',
                                               "Client",[Client],
                                                "Department",[Department],
                                                "Salesman",[Salesman]
                                              )
    Var UnionTable = union (Tablea,Tableb,Tablec)
    Var finalTable = SUMMARIZE(UnionTable,[Client],[Department],[Salesman])
    return finalTable
     
    Note that I've assumed that your first table is called Table1,  that your second table is called Table2, and that your third table is called Table3.
