I have a main table called Overview extracted from a project management software in which i have the following column
Project
First Name
Last Name
Hours logged
For each project, I have a Rate table with the following column
First Name
Last Name
Rate
I want to extract the cost of each project by multiplying the rate x hours logged.
How can I have my main table have one RATE column that populates based on the project specific rate?
Thank you,
@amitchandak that work. What if I have multiple projects (so multiple Table 2), can I use an OR condition?
Hi,
Assuming there is a Project column in Table2 as well, write this calculated column formula in Table1
Rate = calculate(sum(Table2[Rate]),filter(table2,table2[Project]=earlier(table1[Project])&&table2[First name]=earlier(table1[first name])&&table2[Last name]=earlier(table1[last name])))
Hope this helps.
@plmiquelon , A new column in Table 1
MAxx(filter(Table2, Table2[First Name] = table1[First Name] && Table2[Last Name] = Table1[Last name]) , Table2[Rate])
This will rate in Table1 as column, which you can multiply
