Hi @Anonymous,

You could add a calculated column in Table B via Lookupvalue funcion.

New Column =
LOOKUPVALUE (
    TableA[total_order],
    TableA[Driver_Name], TableB[Driver_Name],
    TableA[Date], TableB[Date]
)

I tried to use your formula but for some reason my tableB cannot be enterred/recognised. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Here it worked. The tables have to be related by some column
