Hi,
I'm struggling for some time on this problem. I have two fact tables with Event ID and Date. If the Event ID and Date from Table 2 are equal to those in Table 1, I can assume the event is the same so I need to extract the Location information from Table 2 to the same event in Table 1. If the event in Table 1 isn't in Table 2, Location information is left blank.
Can you help me to develop a DAX function to this new column which solves my problem?
Example:
Table 1:
| Event ID | Date |
| 1 | 04/03 |
| 1 | 04/01 |
| 5 | 04/01 |
| 12 | 04/01 |
| 12 | 04/02 |
Table 2:
| Event ID | Date | Location |
| 1 | 04/03 | A |
| 1 | 04/02 | B |
| 5 | 04/02 | A |
| 12 | 04/02 | C |
Desired Table 1:
| Event ID | Date | New column - Location |
| 1 | 04/03 | A |
| 1 | 04/01 | |
| 5 | 04/01 | |
| 12 | 04/01 | |
| 12 | 04/02 | C |
Thanks so much!

@Anonymous , Create a new column in table 1
New column - Location = maxx(filter('Table 2','Table 2'[Event ID] = 'Table 1'[Event ID] && 'Table 2'[Date]= 'Table 1'[Date]),'Table 2'[Location])
