    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    If the postcode column has unique vaule in the table B, the lookupvalue should work fine as following calculate column

     

    Region = LOOKUPVALUE('Table B'[regions],'Table B'[postcode],[postcode])

    If one postcode has multi region, you can give me the expected result based on my sample data.

     

     

    BTW, pbix as attached.

Tried it, but I am getting an error saying that the region field is not recognised as there is no relationship between the two tables, even thoug hI created the relationship already. 

Is there anything iam missing?
