Not filtering correct in UNION

Hello all, 
Maybe this is an easy take, but I'm facing some issues. I have 2 tables that together form the third table with the UNION function in DAX. Take a look at tables below:

 Table 1 
rowIDamount
1100110
2100210
   
 Table 2 
rowIDamount
1100312
2100415
   
   
   
 Table 3 
rowIDamount
1100110
2100210
3100312
4100415

 

However, I want the user to be able to first set filters for table 1, then for table 2, and the outcome of both tables should be displayed in table 3. But now, when I filter 1 row from table 1, table 3 also only shows that row. But when I also select a row in table 2, table 3 turns empty. 
Is the UNION function the correct one for this? Or is this a relational issue? Would be thankful for the help!

Hi @bnjmnnl ,
If you want to use two filters to display the filtered results on a single table, you first need to make sure that there is no relationship between these two tables

Create a measure

Is Fittered = 
IF(
    SELECTEDVALUE('Table 3'[Row]) IN VALUES('Table 1'[Row]) || SELECTEDVALUE('Table 3'[Row]) IN VALUES('Table 2'[row]),
    1,
    0
)

Apply the measure to the Table 3

Final output
