Lookupvalue or alternative

Hi Experts 

 

I have two table both with a Million rows of data. Table A

Product Ref (text) 

Value (number)

 

Table B 

Product Ref (text) as per Table 

 

Both tabke are joined via a product key table which has distinct values (Product Ref)

As we have multiple entries in Table A for Product Key..

 

How can I get the values from table A into B. Power Query on merger crashes 

 

  • HI,

     

    if there re multiple value for product A in table A which value you wish to bring to table B?

    you can use the aggregation funcion like sum avg etc.

    lookupvalue can get data from table B (unique) to table a pretty easily althoght most of the time the modeling handle this requirment pretty good

     

    I find 2 function to acheive this calc

     

    FROM A2 = CALCULATE( SUM( TableA[Column2] ) )
     
    FROM A1 =
    SUMX(
    RELATEDTABLE( TableA ) ,
    TableA[Column2]
    )
