Hello, I need to multiply data from one column with a measure

Hi, 

So im working with a real estate company and I need to calculate if the commission they get is good enough depending on their standard commission.  

 

here is sample data for the standard commission :

To start with I made a measure calculating the Total commission money they made on every sale :

for exemple immo ABC made 55500 € with their commissions.

But now i need to see if (for exemple) immo ABC made it to their expectations.

 

I have a table where i can see how much they sold, but they were not grouped so I needed a measure to SUM them up:

Here is the problem : 

Now that i know how much all of my companies made, I need to multiply the sold-amount(the measure just above) with the standard commission and compare it to the commission they really earned.

 

I hope it is a bit more clear,

 

Thank you for reading.

Hi @frz ,

 

Make sure that the two tables have such a relationship:

Then create a measure like below:

Measure 2 = SUM(Sale[Sales])*MAX(immo[standard commission])

@frz Sorry, having trouble following, can you post sample data as text and expected output?
Not really enough information to go on, please first check if your issue is a common issue listed here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Before-You-Post-Read-This/ba-p/1116882

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.
