Error Combining Data Of Two Tables

I am trying to replicate these two "pivot" tables here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QwfV0DWBc_5B68K45g-fT6Z1DjiXsLHY/view?usp=sharing so that i can do calculations between the two.

Currently my data model does not allow to filter between these two tables. It gives an error when i select columns from both sets. What am i doing wrong?

hi yours truly from south africa by any chance, i remember all these products 🙂

 

the problem was your calculated fields cat and one that i removed was creating a circular dependency.  I remove and recreated them and set the relationship to active so you can link them  see attached

use the matrix object rather than the table and place the months on the columns
