    Hi,

    Write this calculated column formula in the Date Table

    Column = LOOKUPVALUE('PHolidays (2)'[Public Holiday],'PHolidays (2)'[Date],'Date'[Date])

    Now ensure that all your tables are connected only to the Date Table.  Whenever you want to view any information by Public Holidays, drag that column from the Date Table (not from the PHolidays table).

    Hope this helps.

Hi,

You should create a Calendar Table first.  Using the LOOKUPVALUE() function, bring over the Holidays from the PHolidays table to the Calendar Table.  The Calendar Table should have a relationship with the other tables.
