Linking columns between tables through the use of a measure

I have two queries in PBI report that I need to merge into one visual. There is a common field between the two tables but I can't seem to get the correct values when I attempt to link the queries through manage relationships. Is there another way to get the values from both queries into one visual? Can I do this through a Measure? If so what Dax function would I use?

 

Thanks

Hi @zklagge ,thanks for the quick reply.

Hi @U156531 ,

Regarding your question, perhaps you can use the 'LOOKUPVALUE' function for your purpose.

If you're struggling with aggregations in DAX, it might be prudent to try and join the two in PowerQuery, that can often be a bit more straightforward/is easier to identify where/how the join fails.  

 

Beyond that, if you could provide more information about your problem (perhaps the field types, is the relationship many-many, etc) that might also someone to do more thorough solutioning.
