Hi, @Anonymous 

According to your description and sample pictures, I also created a ‘RATE’ table and I create a one to one and both filter relationship between the two tables, you should also check and keep the relationship active, like this:

v-robertq-msft_0-1609815474552.png

 

Then I created a table chart and I can get your expected table, like this:

v-robertq-msft_1-1609815474559.png

And you can get what you want.

 

If this result is not what you want, you can post some sample data(without sensitive data) and your expected result.

do you have relantionship in place for this tables? please show the relantionship diagram, as usually what you would do its reference the rate table by the source table if its linked to your fact table, so 
source table linked to fact table as a dimensional table and rate table linked to source table as a sub dimensional table, with relantionship, or all direct to your fact tables according to how you have your model build.

Hello @Anonymous ,

 

It seems that you have both an active and inactive relationship for RATE table.

Please read article on link below to understand the difference.

https://radacad.com/userelationship-or-role-playing-dimension-dealing-with-inactive-relationships-in-power-bi

 

For you calculations if you want to use the inactive relationship you should use USERELATIONSHIP

Create the following 2 measure in RATES table and you will notice that the information will be displayed properly

 

 

SOURCE_INACTIVE = CALCULATE(MAX('RATE'[SOURCE]), USERELATIONSHIP('RATE'[SOURCE], Source[SOURCE]))

 

 

 

RATE_INACTIVE = CALCULATE(MAX('RATE'[RATE]), USERELATIONSHIP('RATE'[SOURCE], Source[SOURCE]))

Hope you can advise me where i go wrong ?

Hello @Anonymous ,

 

The formulas should be measures not columns.

 

You need to do something additionally.

You need to go to data model, edit the relationship between INVC and Source and change Cross Filter Direction to 'Both'. See image below.

 

Then on the table if you add the following fields the information will be displayed correctly:

SOURCE, SOURCE_INACTIVE, RATE_INACTIVE

Hello @Anonymous 

Could you also share the workspace with us? Mask any sensitive data

ok, delete all relantionship from rate table to any fact table and mantain the one to the source table, refere the source table to any fact table or dimensional table using source for any porpuse and make the relantioshio between source table and rate table a 1 to * from rate to source and directo only from rate to source 

let the source table to propagate the rate across all other tables. ensure that the source table its linked with the facts table you needing to have the rate associated to.
