I have table 1
| Date | ID | Value |
| 23/02/2024 | x234fs | 21 |
| 23/02/2024 | d4635d | 2 |
| 23/02/2024 | a324ss | 54 |
| 23/02/2024 | d35s22 | 3 |
table 2
| Category | ID | Location |
| TypeA | x234fs | Lake A |
| TypeB | d4635d | Lake A |
| TypeA | a324ss | Garden |
| TypeB | d35s22 | Garden |
I want to subtract value of typeA to typeB in table 1 if IDs are in the same location and same month. Category typeA and typeB are fixed but there are many locations.
Expected new table like this:
| Date | ID | Value |
| 23/02/2024 | x234fs | 19 |
| 23/02/2024 | d4635d | 2 |
| 23/02/2024 | a324ss | 51 |
| 23/02/2024 | d35s22 | 3 |
I have been trying to create new column in the table 1 like below but does not work. I appreciate all the help and suggestion. Thank you!!
```
SubtractionResult =
VAR LocationsWithAB =
FILTER(
VALUES(table_2),
CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(table_2), table_2[Category] = "Type A") > 0 &&
CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(table_2), table_2[Category] = "Type B") > 0
)
VAR Result =
SUMX(
LocationsWithAB,
VAR CurrentLocation = table_2[Location]
VAR AccountA = CALCULATE(VALUES(table_2[ID]), table_2[Location] = CurrentLocation, table_2[Category] = "Type A")
VAR AccountB = CALCULATE(VALUES(table_2[ID]), table_2[Category] = CurrentLocation, table_2[Category] = "Type B")
VAR ConsumptionA =
CALCULATE(
SUM(table_1[Value]),
table_1[ID] = AccountA &&
table_1[Date] IN VALUES(table_1[Date])
)
VAR ConsumptionB =
CALCULATE(
SUM(table_1[consumption]),
table_1[ID] = AccountB &&
table_1[Date] IN VALUES(table_1[Date])
)
RETURN
IF(
NOT(ISBLANK(ConsumptionA)) && NOT(ISBLANK(ConsumptionB)),
ConsumptionA - ConsumptionB,
ConsumptionB
)
)
RETURN
Result
```

Thanks for your suggestion @amitchandak !!
It's very close to what I need, just that it won't work if there are different dates in the table.
A little tweak fixed it:

@LunaD , Hope two tables are joined. File is attached for reference
