DAX Formula Help: Returning Values Based on Multiple Conditions Across Two Tables

Hello everyone,

I need help writing a DAX formula in Power BI that applies specific conditional logic based on fields in two tables: *Table 1* and *Table 2*. My goal is to return different values based on combinations of values in `settle_code`, `supplier_name`, `Lcard`, and `Value_Code`.

My preference would be creating a calculated column in Table 1.

Here are the specific conditions I’m looking to implement:

1. **Return "card" when:**
- `Table 1[settle_code]` is "CREDIT" **and** `Table 2[supplier_name]` is "SPA(AA)Sale" **and** `Table 2[Lcard]` is "Card"
- `Table 1[settle_code]` is "CASH" **and** `Table 2[supplier_name]` is "SPA(AA)Sale" **and** `Table 2[Lcard]` is "Card"
- `Table 1[settle_code]` is "CARD" **and** `Table 2[supplier_name]` is "SPA(AA)Sale" **and** `Table 2[Lcard]` is "Card"

2. **Return "SPA(AA) Sale" when:**
- `Table 1[settle_code]` is "CREDIT" **and** `Table 2[supplier_name]` is "SPA(AA)Sale" **and** `Table 2[Lcard]` is empty (`""`)
- `Table 1[settle_code]` is "CASH" **and** `Table 2[supplier_name]` is "SPA(AA)Sale" **and** `Table 2[Lcard]` is empty
- `Table 1[settle_code]` is "CARD" **and** `Table 2[supplier_name]` is "SPA(AA)Sale" **and** `Table 2[Lcard]` is empty

3. **Return "UCCF" when:**
- `Table 1[settle_code]` is "UCCF" **and** `Table 1[Value_Code]` is one of ("AX", "CA", "TP", "VI") **and** `Table 2[supplier_name]` is "SPA(AA)Sale" **and** `Table 2[Lcard]` is empty

4. **Return "error" when:**
- `Table 1[settle_code]` is "UCCF" **and** `Table 1[Value_Code]` is not one of ("AX", "CA", "TP", "VI")

5. **Else return "Other" for all other cases.**

I'm not sure how to best structure this in DAX. Any advice on creating this formula would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Hi InsightSeeker ,

You can use the dax formula like below using lookupvalue to write a calculated column in Table 1 to produce your required output.

Result = 
VAR SupplierName = LOOKUPVALUE('Table 2'[supplier_name], 'Table 2'[unique_key], 'Table 1'[unique_key])
VAR LcardValue = LOOKUPVALUE('Table 2'[Lcard], 'Table 2'[unique_key], 'Table 1'[unique_key])

RETURN 
    SWITCH(
        TRUE(),
        
        // Condition 1: Return "card"
        (
            'Table 1'[settle_code] IN {"CREDIT", "CASH", "CARD"} &&
            SupplierName = "SPA(AA)Sale" &&
            LcardValue = "Card"
        ), "card",
        
        // Condition 2: Return "SPA(AA) Sale"
        (
            'Table 1'[settle_code] IN {"CREDIT", "CASH", "CARD"} &&
            SupplierName = "SPA(AA)Sale" &&
            (LcardValue = "" || ISBLANK(LcardValue))
        ), "SPA(AA) Sale",
        
        // Condition 3: Return "UCCF"
        (
            'Table 1'[settle_code] = "UCCF" &&
            'Table 1'[Value_Code] IN {"AX", "CA", "TP", "VI"} &&
            SupplierName = "SPA(AA)Sale" &&
            (LcardValue = "" || ISBLANK(LcardValue))
        ), "UCCF",
        
        // Condition 4: Return "error"
        (
            'Table 1'[settle_code] = "UCCF" &&
            NOT('Table 1'[Value_Code] IN {"AX", "CA", "TP", "VI"})
        ), "error",
        
        // Default case: Return "Other"
        "Other"
    )

I have attached an example pbix file.

Best regards,

Hi InsightSeeker Try this below code (Using Lookupvalue for unrelated tables):

NewColumn = 
VAR SettleCode = 'Table1'[settle_code]
VAR SupplierName = LOOKUPVALUE('Table2'[supplier_name], 'Table2'[unique_key], 'Table1'[unique_key])
VAR Lcard = LOOKUPVALUE('Table2'[Lcard], 'Table2'[unique_key], 'Table1'[unique_key])
VAR ValueCode = 'Table1'[Value_Code]

RETURN
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    (SettleCode IN {"CREDIT", "CASH", "CARD"} && SupplierName = "SPA(AA)Sale" && Lcard = "Card"), "card",
    (SettleCode IN {"CREDIT", "CASH", "CARD"} && SupplierName = "SPA(AA)Sale" && Lcard = ""), "SPA(AA) Sale",
    (SettleCode = "UCCF" && ValueCode IN {"AX", "CA", "TP", "VI"} && SupplierName = "SPA(AA)Sale" && Lcard = ""), "UCCF",
    (SettleCode = "UCCF" && NOT(ValueCode IN {"AX", "CA", "TP", "VI"})), "error",
    "Other"
)

Output:

Hi InsightSeeker ,

Please in Table 1 create calculated column and past the following DAX code:

Result = 
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    // Condition 1: Return "card"
    
        Table1[settle_code] IN {"CREDIT", "CASH", "CARD"} &&
        LOOKUPVALUE(Table2[supplier_name], Table2[unique_key], Table1[unique_key]) = "SPA(AA)Sale" &&
        LOOKUPVALUE(Table2[Lcard], Table2[unique_key], Table1[unique_key]) = "Card"
    , "card",
    
    // Condition 2: Return "SPA(AA) Sale"

        Table1[settle_code] IN {"CREDIT", "CASH", "CARD"} &&
        LOOKUPVALUE(Table2[supplier_name], Table2[unique_key], Table1[unique_key]) = "SPA(AA)Sale" &&
        ISBLANK(LOOKUPVALUE(Table2[Lcard], Table2[unique_key], Table1[unique_key]))
    , "SPA(AA) Sale",
    
    // Condition 3: Return "UCCF"

        Table1[settle_code] = "UCCF" &&
        Table1[Value_Code] IN {"AX", "CA", "TP", "VI"} &&
        LOOKUPVALUE(Table2[supplier_name], Table2[unique_key], Table1[unique_key]) = "SPA(AA)Sale" &&
        ISBLANK(LOOKUPVALUE(Table2[Lcard], Table2[unique_key], Table1[unique_key]))
    , "UCCF",
    
    // Condition 4: Return "error"
    AND(
        Table1[settle_code] = "UCCF",
        NOT Table1[Value_Code] IN {"AX", "CA", "TP", "VI"}
    ), "error",
    
    // Default: Return "Other"
    "Other"
)

Your table1 should now look like this:
