    rpinxt ,
    If the two tables are related to each other this will work.

     

    Measure =
    Var a = MAX(Sheet1[Flow]) = "Reworked"
    var b = MAX(Sheet1[Amt LC]) < -50
    var c = a && b
    var d = IF(c,MAX('Sheet1 (2)'[Quantity]), 0)
    return d

     

    Regards,

    Ashfiya

Anonymous  well not understanding your logic fully.

Tried this :

 

First of I do not understand why you reference Flow by using a MAX?

From table 'AVN Rework Flow' I want to check if the value is "Reworked"

And from table 'AVN Rework' I want to check if the amount is more/less then  - 50

 

If these are both true then I want to show the quantity.

And if it is false I want to show 0 (quantity).

 

As you see now the true and false are all over the place.

Reworked shows false but also Other shows false.

And x shows true (guessing with the max you where thinking that Reworked would be the word highest in alphabet?)

Since it's a row-by-row operation in the measure, irrespective of any aggregation ( min or max ) it will take the value itself. Since you mentioned "Flow" and my "Quantity" come from 2 different tables.  How are these tables related to each other? Do you have any primary column?
