HI @Anonymous,

You can try to use the following measure formula to summary records across different table fields based on conditions:

fomrula =
VAR _list =
    CALCULATETABLE (
        VALUES ( A[Prod. ID] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLSELECTED ( A ),
            COUNTROWS (
                FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( B ), SEARCH ( [Model], [Item Name], 1, -1 ) > 0 )
            ) > 0
        )
    )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( C[Calc Qty] ),
        FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( C ), [Prod. ID] IN _list )
    )

Hi @Anonymous ,

I will do one thing , If you can have 3 type of scenario text conetnts. So for you can go and work back end in Power Qurery.
 -----
Select the A column then serach first  inside droptown like TW, then enter.
Select the A column then serach first  inside droptown like TC, then enter.
Select the A column then serach first  inside droptown like TR, then enter.

final you have 3 type of column like A , B , C.
Then apply and clsoe.
Post uploaded. Using
DAX = if (A=blank(), B,
if(B=blank(), C,
if(C=blank(), A, 0))).

try this by the way. if you feel with good kudos me :).


Have a good day.
