Hello,
I'm wondering if someone could help me with following..
I created new column in Data tab to return a value from another excel sheet, but the values are not returned...
No error is indicated.
Could anyone try to help me to understand what the issue could be?
Thank you!
Solved! Go to Solution.
It seems like coming from the same sheet not different. and You compared [FAM], which I do not see in this table.
This how we get from another table
New Column = sumx(filter(table2,table2[Col1]= table1[col1] && table2[Col2]= table1[col2] ),table2[required_col])
same table
New Column = maxx(filter(table1,table1[Col1]= earlier(table1[col1]) && table1[Col1]= earlier(table1[col2]) ),table1[required_col])
Condition can change as per need
Hi,
After my test, it works well here:
Amount of ESC = CALCULATE(SUM(ECS[Amount]),FILTER(ECS,ECS[FAM]=EARLIER(BW[Operational Company])&&ECS[FAM LINE]=EARLIER(BW[FAM Line])&&ECS[Period]=BW[Period]))Here is my test pbix file:
Please check it.
Hope this helps.
Best Regards,
Giotto Zhi

Thank you, Amit!!! I had to add another condition for Period, but the logic you desribed worked very well.
Hi @KatkaS
Sure, can you explain what you would like to do, what is the relationship between these tables and if the table you are adding the column to is on one side of this relationship or on the many side?
