Measure or calculated column based on values from another table

I have the model below and I want to calculate the capacity of each assignee based on the remaining days in a Sprint.

This would be basically Users[USER_DAILY_CAPACITY] * SPRINTS[DAYS_REMAINING_IN_SPRINT] but I can't achieve this in DAX.

Ultimately I want to display the Original Effort vs Remaining effort vs Remaining capacity per assignee and filter with Sprints_Reports.SPRINT_ID . 

 

I tried merging USER with SPRINTS using some intermediary tables and I can calculate the Remaining capacity per user, but with no direct relationship between SPRINTS and ISSUES doesn't bring the correct data if I filter with the Sprints_Reports.SPRINT_ID . 

 

Any ideas?

Hi @bastik ,

 

A good model is half the battle, and Power BI prefers a star schema model.

Understand star schema and the importance for Power BI

 

Could you please provide a file with no sensitive data to be used for testing? This would be extremely helpful for the next step.
