    Yes, you're on the right track with related. Assuming your InactiveEmployees table doesn't have duplicates, you'll want to create a relationship between the EmployeeMaster and InactiveEmployees tables on the employee_no field.

    Status = IF('EmployeeMaster'[reason_code]=BLANK() && RELATED('InactiveEmployees'[inactive_date])=BLANK(),"Active​","Inactive")
