Return value from other table with condition

Hi everyone, I would appreciate some help on this:

 

I have two tables that are linked through an OrderID. Let’s call the tables TableA and TableB.

TableA has unique OrderIDs. In TableB an OrderID can appear multiple times.

 

In TableA I want to add a calculated column with the name ‘Country’.

I can find the value for this new column in TableB[Keyword]. However TableB does not have unique OrderIDs and needs to be filtered on TableB[KeywordGroup] first. Only if the value in TableB[KeywordGroup] is “Country”, I want to return the value from TableB[Keyword].

 

So what I’m trying to achieve is this:

In the new column TableA[Country] I would like to return the value from TableB[Keyword] if TableB[KeywordGroup] = Country.

It’s probably very logical, but can’t find the right way of getting this done.

 

Hope you can help.

    Hi JamieLee

    In table B, create a new table

    Table = SUMMARIZE(FILTER(ALL(tableB),[KeywordGroup]="country"),[OrderID],[Keyword])

    Then edit relationship between Table A and the new table

     

    In table A, create a calculated column

    Column = RELATED('Table'[Keyword])

     

    Best Regards

    Maggie
