How to have 2 active relationships between 2 tables
OK, then a creating a common key/index/ID for each unique A,B pair in the query editor is a decent solution.
Here's an example of how this works:

Thanks. I read that post http://radacad.com/relationship-in-power-bi-with-multiple-columns.
But I don't understand how to apply to my problem. :o
I have visual (piechart and a stackcolumn chart) for my Table 1, and Table 2 's visual is a table.
piechart is summarized based on ColumnA of Table 1.
stackcolumn is summarized based on Column B of Table 1.
Even if i create a calucated column in each of my Table 1 and Table 2, i
how can I make powerBI display Table2 values according to what i selected in Table 1 visual?
e.g.
e.g. if i select a particular value of Column A in the pie chart,
Table2 only shows the rows with ColumnA equals to what is selected
same as if i select a value in Column B in the stacked column chart,
Table 2 only shows the rows with the selected column B.

If you have the index I suggested, then you can set the relationship to filter both directions, which should do exactly what you want.

Thanks for your solution. Having 1 index column let me to get to this state:
1. click visual for Column A of Table1, visual for Table 2 will be filted to show its Column A of what is selected
2 click visual for Column B of Table1, visual for Table 2 will be filted to show its Column B of what is selected
But how can I filter Table 2 of what is selected of Column A *AND* Column B of Table 1?

Since the index I suggested is for unique combinations of both A and B, it will cross filter both.
