Hi,
I have 2 tables as below. I have a requirement to calculate differeent totals based on different joins between the tables.
(1) Budget,Actual Sales by SalesRegion
(2) Budget,Actual Sales by Sales manager
(3) Budget, Actual Sales by Sales Region, product etc.
How to do it?
SalesRegion | Product | Budget |
Asia | Bike | 100 |
Asia | Car | 100 |
Europe | Bike | 300 |
USA | Bike | 200 |
Canada | Car | 200 |
SalesManager | SalesRegion | Product | Sales |
ABC | Asia | Bike | 5 |
ABC | Asia | Car | 5 |
DEF | USA | Bike | 50 |
XYZ | Canada | Car | 10 |

Hi @Meena ,
Here I suggest you to create inactive relationship between two tables.
Actual Sales by SalesRegion =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'Table (2)'[Sales] ),
USERELATIONSHIP ( 'Table'[SalesRegion], 'Table (2)'[SalesRegion] )
)
Actual Budget by Sales manager =
VAR _ADD = ADDCOLUMNS('Table (2)',"Budget",CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Budget]),FILTER('Table','Table'[SalesRegion] = EARLIER('Table (2)'[SalesRegion])&& 'Table'[Product] = EARLIER('Table (2)'[Product]))))
RETURN
SUMX(_ADD,[Budget])
Actual Sales by Sales Region, product =
VAR _ADD = ADDCOLUMNS('Table',"Sales",CALCULATE(SUM('Table (2)'[Sales]),FILTER('Table (2)','Table (2)'[SalesRegion] = EARLIER('Table'[SalesRegion])&&'Table (2)'[Product] = EARLIER('Table'[Product]))))
RETURN
SUMX(_ADD,[Sales])
Result is as below.
