    Hi powerbi_9

     

    You may refer to below dax to create the calculated columns and link the two table in relationship view.

    date_outcome =
CALCULATE (
    FIRSTNONBLANK ( Table2[StartDate], 1 ),
    FILTER (
        Table2,
        Table2[StartDate] >= Table1[StartDate]
            && Table2[ParentID] = Table1[ParentID]
            && Table2[StartDate]
            < Table1[StartDate] + 31
    )
)
    Status_lookup =
CALCULATE (
    FIRSTNONBLANK ( Table2[Status], 1 ),
    TOPN (
        1,
        FILTER (
            Table2,
            Table2[StartDate] = Table1[date_outcome]
                && Table2[ParentID] = Table1[ParentID]
        ),
        Table2[ChildID], ASC
    )
)

Also, it is possible that both datasets may have the duplicate parent id's.
