Hi,
I have the following situation. 3 Tables (workhours, sales & revenue).
1st question.
By visual element TABLE, I want to show the construction name + Workhours + Materials+ Revenue. This works fine.
I want an extra calculated column (profit/loss) that calculates the amount in column Revenue minus amount workhours minus the Materials.
How is this done? I'm not getting any further with this.
Thanks in advance !
Solved! Go to Solution.

Just to make sure, can you post a screenshot of your model (to check relationships between tables)?

Sure,
Here you go.
And here the solution I would want.
A green color with profit and a red color with losses would be awesome 🙂

Dear Paul,
This helped a lot !
Thx !
@Anonymous not sure your column name on the screen shot are the same but it should be simple calculation , add new column with following expression
Profit and Lost =
Table[Column1] + Table[Column2] - Table[Column3]
change the logic and column/table name in calculation as per your need.

Hi,
Thx for the reply, it shows me 3 options (calculatetable, datetable and relatedtable). Which option to chose from?
For reference, i've included my test file with 3 tables (workhours, materials, sales).
