How to Lookup Value From 2 different tables into 1 single column

I have a full sets of (overall) sum value from quote - Table A

I have full sets of line item value from quote - Table B, (currently empty)

 

Is there any measure or custom conditional collumn or DAX code that I can lookup value in Table B from Table A, by using quote number?

It is a little unusual, but the idea behind was to reduce the number of datasets from source file.

 

Which means after lookup, the visual result will be in 1 combined table.

    Anonymous why dont you merge them in power query?  or append creating 2 separate columns, create a conditional column to combine them and then remove the other columns?

      Hi vanessafvg SivaMani,

       

      I tried both approach, but it don't seemed to work.

      I can share the PBIX file, but please allow me to remove all the confidential information first.

       

      The merge queries duplicates all the final model pricing and does not shows sum pricing of all the line item when visualed on table.

      LookupValue can only be exact match, my quote# is a running number.

       

      Seems like the simplest way is to import more datasets.
