If value is between two numbers from another table

Look up table:

ProductStartStepEndStep
Apple17
Apple1936
Apple4146
Apple5461
Orange111
Orange3542
Orange5562

 

Fact table:

ProductStepYNQty
Apple6Yes5
Apple8No5
Apple60Yes4
Orange12No6
Orange45No6
Orange55Yes4

 

Result:

Apple = 9 qty (5+4)

Orange = 4 qty (4)

 

I'm trying to create a YN calculated column in the fact table. Yes/No if Step from fact table is between StartStep and EndStep from look up table. Then, filter YN column to calculate the total qty of the products.

 

What would be the best way to approach this?

HI @EZiamslow 

 

Trty this code to add a new column by using DAX:

YN Column = 
VAR _Step = 'Fact'[Step]
RETURN
    IF (
        CALCULATE (
            COUNTROWS ( 'Look up' ),
            FILTER (
                'Look up',
                'Look up'[Product] = EARLIER ( 'Fact'[Product] )
                    && 'Look up'[EndStep] >= _Step
                    && 'Look up'[StartStep] <= _Step
            )
        ) > 0,
        "Yes",
        "No"
    )

Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension!

DAX is simple, but NOT EASY!
