How to add a column that determines if the device is under maintenance

Hello
I have two tables, one in which there is a list of devices (Devices table):

instrumentidver
HPLC_000671
LC MSMS-001032
LC MSMS-001054
LC MSMS-001571
LCMSMS_000051
LCMSMS_0001722
DEAC9019441
HPLC-DAD-001002


The other contains a list of maintenance requests on the devices (Maintenance requests):

instrumentidstatus
HPLC_00067 
LC MSMS-00103Assigned
LC MSMS-00105Canceled
LC MSMS-00157Cancelled
LCMSMS_00005Close
LCMSMS_00017Draft
DEAC901944Hold
LC MSMS-00103Rejected
LC MSMS-00105Resolved
LC MSMS-00157Returned
LCMSMS_00005SectionHead
LCMSMS_00017SendBack
DEAC901944Supervisor
HPLC-DAD-00100Canceled


How can I add a column to the first table (device list) that shows whether the device is available/unavailable because it is under maintenance, if there is a row in the second table and the status of the maintenance request is:
Assigned
Hold
Returned
SendBack

How can I put another column that shows the number of current maintenance requests?

pls try this

Column = if( countx(FILTER(RELATEDTABLE(Maintainance),'Maintainance'[status] in {"Assigned" , "Hold" , "Returned" , "SendBack"}),'Maintainance'[instrumentid])>0,"yes","no")
Column 2 = COUNTROWS(RELATEDTABLE(Maintainance))

what's the expected output?

e.g. for the second id, 003, there are two rows in the second table.

yes/no Logic based on the presence of a line for the same “instrumentid” in the second table (maintenance requests), and “status” column must be = "Assigned" or "Hold" or "Returned" or "SendBack"

@abdullah11 

pls try this

Column = if( countx(FILTER(RELATEDTABLE(Maintainance),'Maintainance'[status] in {"Assigned" , "Hold" , "Returned" , "SendBack"}),'Maintainance'[instrumentid])>0,"yes","no")
Column 2 = COUNTROWS(RELATEDTABLE(Maintainance))
