    https://1drv.ms/u/s!AgMTUY3Uvq3bg8glg-ytnTIQ5iTN9Q?e=CGYbXv

    How it works ....
    Add a "Table" column = 1 to Table1
    Add a "Table" column = 2 to Table2
    Append Table1 and Table2 to new Table3

     

    In Table3 Split Column by Delimter 
    with Comma,  Each occurence, Advanced and Rows

     

    Create measures

    Reasons =
    CALCULATE(
        CONCATENATEX(
            DISTINCT(Table3[Reason]),
            Table3[Reason],
            ", "))
    Answer =
    SWITCH(TRUE(),
    [Reasons] = BLANK(),"N/A",
    COUNTROWS(Table3) > DISTINCTCOUNT(Table3[Reason]),"Yes",
    "No")

    The on a new page, drag a table visual, and drag Tabl3 ID, the Reasons measure and the Answer measure

We want to help you but your description is too vaugue. Please write it again clearly.

Please DON'T copy & paste your DAX that does not work and expect us to fathom what you want to do. That would be crazy. 😀

Please just give a simple non technical functional decscription of what you want, then let us suggest the DAX. Thank you.

Provide example input data as table text (not a screen print) so we can import the data to build a solution for you.
Also provide the example desired output, with a clear description of the process flow.

Remember not to share private data ... we don't want you to get into trouble. 😧

Take time and care to use the same table and field names in the input, output and description so we can understand your problem and help you.

You will get a quick response if you put time, care and effort into writing clear problem descriptions.

Vaugue descriptions can waste your time and ourtime.

Look foward to helping you when the above information is forthcoming
