Invoke multiple information from other columns
Hello Community!
I get a little bit of truble here:
Got 3 tables with this information as an example:
Table 1:
User Team Completed
User1 Team1 1
User2 Team1 0
User 3 Team1 3
Table 2:
User Team Completed
User 1 Team2 3
User2 Team2 4
User3 Team2 0
User Team Completed
User 1 Team3 5
User2 Team3 8
User3 Team3 3
So i need Help to show in a visualization the total completed of each team with a selector that allows me to select the team and a number card to show me all the completed SUM.
i think that maybe creating a "symbolic" table to relation with all the completed and team information would allow me to retribe the requiered information in a visualization but i can't do it.
Thank you! :)
Hey,
basically I'm wondering why you have multiple table.
From within PowerQuery I personally would appende the tables, so that I finally have just one.
Does this makes sense?

Do UNION ( Go to Modelling-> New Table-> create a new DAX table using the UNION) of all 3 tables using DAX, so you will have all details in the DAX table. Then you can create a measure SUM(DAT_Table[Completed]) and pull this measure and team column in visuals.
Also you can use this measure in a Card as needed.
Thanks

Not sure whether you are doing this in Power Query or in DAX.
If you do in DAX - Yes, all modelling/calculations happen in Power BI inmemory.
If you get this error hile doing UNION in DAX, please share the snapshot of your formula. Something you are missing .
Thanks

Yes, it would be the best i guess,
But when i append all the tables i get this error:
" Failed to save modifications to the server. Error returned: ' OLE DB or ODBC error:{DataFormat.Error} Too many fields defined..'. "
I'm getting my data set from an access db file. But i thinked that the Queries modeling in powerBI was storaged in the local file. Don't understand why this is traying to save the appened file in a database.
Do you know why this is happening? :S
Thank you!
