How to View Actual and Budget values in single tables

Hi All,

 

I have Table 1 and Table 2 and there is no relationship created in the model (This tables are transaction tables and not master tables).

 

Table 1 :

 

CityActual_Population
Bangalore10
Bangalore12
Chennai4
Chennai5
Mangalore8
Mangalore8
Mangalore8


Table 2 :

 

CityBudget_Population
Bangalore15
Bangalore15
Chennai3
Chennai6
Mangalore9
Mangalore9
Mangalore9


I am trying to populate Actual and Budget values in the Matrix table. Actual data and Budget data is populated from Table 1 and Table 2 respectively.

 

Expected data output :

 

CityActual_PopulationBudget_Population
Bangalore2230
Chennai99
Mangalore2427

 

How to achieve this through Power BI?

Hi @Rajeshaxxonet,

 

You can acheive the solution without adding a separate table for cities. With your exiting dataset you can get the following result.

Microsoft has already introduced Many to May relationships which help resolving such requirements.

many to many.pngIf you don't find Many to Many (*:*) option in the cardinality you can turn on this feature as shown below.

In the options window trun on the 'Composite models' feature.

I would recommend simply adding a lookup table containing unique values of city to join these two tables.  From there, you would choose the city column from your lookup table and the actual/budget value columns from table 1 and table 2 in a "Table" visual.  See below:
