SUMMARIZE link with a second date table with and inactive relationship

Hi all

 

For the final result of my report, I need to create 2 tables using SUMMARIZE 

 

My fact table (TblSales) is linked with a date tabel (using the DateID). The date table is also linked with a second date table using an inactive 1-to-1 relationship. The reason why is that I need to compare two adjustable periodes (FYI : it is a sales report in which I need to compare the average prices of two adjustable periode) 

 

My first table is correct 

TblTemp1 = SUMMARIZE ('TblSales' 'TblSales'[CustomerNo], 'TblSales'[MaterialNo])

 

The second table (I will use this is a measure as a variant) that I need to created needs to ignore the filtercontect of the first date table, and take into account the filter context of the second date table. 

 

Can someone help me out on this one? 

I assume it is with function USERELATIONSHIP, but I do not manage to get it right 

 

Thx!!!

 

regards

Bjorn 

 

 

The first tabel is based on a

Why do you need to use Summarize?  It has its place, but is often used incorrectly in place of using visuals such as a Matrix to generate the required outcome.

I will not give you bad advice, even if you unknowingly ask for it.
