Merging Tables with no shared columns

I need to 'merge' 2 tables in BI, using DAX only to create a new table, containing every row from each of the 2 tables. 

 

Table 1 is a DAX Dates table, dynamically populated with the following: 

Ref_Dates = 
VAR MinDate = YEAR(MIN(Tasks[ProcessedDate]))
VAR MaxDate = YEAR(MAX(Tasks[ProcessedDate]))

RETURN

ADDCOLUMNS(
            FILTER(
            CALENDARAUTO(), 
            YEAR([Date]) >= MinDate && 
            YEAR([Date]) <= MaxDate), 
            "Year", YEAR( [Date]), 
            "Month Year", FORMAT([Date], "mmm yyyy"),
            "Month Name", FORMAT([Date], "mmmm"),
            "Month Number", MONTH([Date] ),
            "Day Name", 
                            VAR Wd = WEEKDAY([Date], 2)
                            RETURN DATE (1900, 1, 7 + Wd + (7 * (Wd < 1))),
            "Day of Month Number", DAY([Date]),
            "IsWeekday", IF(WEEKDAY([Date], 2) IN {6,7}, 0, 1),
            "Date as Text", FORMAT([Date], "dd mmm yyyy"), 
            "Start of Month", DATE(YEAR([Date]), MONTH([Date]), 01),
            "Start of Week", [Date]-WEEKDAY([Date],2)+1
            
            )

Table 2 is a users table, looks like this:

How can I merge the 2 tables, to end up with this:

Hi @N_R_000 ,

You could use crossjoin:

Table 2 = CROSSJOIN('Table',SELECTCOLUMNS(Ref_Dates,"Date",Ref_Dates[Date]))
