Filtering on Column in a Calculated Table by Others Column in distinct Tables

Hi all, need a big help on this request. 

1- I have a table called 'Transactions Table' that needs to be filter by 'Table Filter 1' and 'Table Filter2'

2- I need the Order Numbers on 'Table Filter 1' and 'Table Filter 2' being removed from 'Transactions Table'

3- I have a calculated table called 'Transactions Table Filtered' where I was able to remove the orders number from 'Table Filter 1' and ' Table Filter 2' (see measure below)

4- My problem is, the Calculated Table must change when I change the 'Report Date' slicer. That's mean, if I select report date as 31-Dec-2023 from the Report Date Table, I want to filter only the Order Numbers from 'Table Filter 1' and 'Table filter 2' with the same correspondent Report Date. 

here's my sample tables for a better undestanding:

and my Calculated Table measure which is missing the Filter component:

any help will be really appreciated!

thanks!

Hi @JSIQUEI-YYC-ENB ,

 

My Sample:

Please try code as below to create a meausre. Then you can add this measure into visual level filter and set it to show items when value = 1.

M1 = 
VAR _Table1 =
    VALUES ( 'Table Filter 1'[Order Number] )
VAR _Table2 =
    VALUES ( 'Table Filter 2'[Order Number] )
RETURN
    IF (
        OR (
            MAX ( 'Transactions Table'[Order Number] ) IN _Table1,
            MAX ( 'Transactions Table'[Order Number] ) IN _Table2
        ),
        0,
        1
    )

You cannot create calculated tables from measures.  Instead, you need to use the measure as a visual filter.
