Measure to create a sum of a column based on matched values from another table

I have a column for Channel and its viewership across different regions in Table 1. This is a weekly data.

In Table 2, I have Channel and its preferred region (one per channel).

I want to create a measure to show a graph which has channels and the sum of viewership for the preferred region. 

 

Can't find any solution. Need help.

HI  @Anonymous 

Assume that you have create a relationship between two tables by Channel field, then just use this formula to create a measure:

Measure = CALCULATE(SUM('Table 1'[Viewership]),FILTER('Table 1','Table 1'[Region] =RELATED('Table 2'[Preferred region])))

 

or

Measure 2 = CALCULATE(SUM('Table 1'[Viewership]),FILTER('Table 1','Table 1'[Region] =MAX('Table 2'[Preferred region])))

 

here is sample pbix file, please try it.

Hi Amit,

 

Thanks for the response. I was actually looking to create a measure instead of a table.

 

The data looks something like this;

 

Table 2Table 2Table 1Table 1
