Hi,

Create a relationship (Many to One and Single) from Table 2 to Table1.  To your visual, drag Supplier from Table 1.  Write this measure

SC = max('Table1'[Supplier code])

Hope this helps.

Hi @InsightSeeker -Create a new column in table 2 uses LOOKUPVALUE to search 'Table 1' for the matching 'Supplier' and returns the corresponding 'Supplier Code'.

 

calculated column:

 

Result1 (Supplier Code) =
LOOKUPVALUE(
    'SP1'[Supplier Code],
    'SP1'[Supplier], 'Sp2'[Supplier]
)

Hi @rajendraongole1  - I want to acheive this thorugh measure instead of calculated column, is it possible?

Hi @InsightSeeker - Creating a measure to replicate the functionality of LOOKUPVALUE can be challenging because measures in Power BI are context-sensitive calculations meant to aggregate data rather than perform row-by-row operations.

 

you have to mark mine reply as a solution. 

 

Can you do it?
