HI soldanr
the simplest way to do this is to combine table1 and tabl2, adding an extra column to identify the location.
afterwards, you can summarize this easily with a matrix
if you wanted to do it with a DAX query to create a new table, you can do it like this:
=
GROUPBY (
UNION (
ADDCOLUMNS ( Ship1, "Location", "Location 1" ),
ADDCOLUMNS (
SELECTCOLUMNS ( Ship2, "PN", [PN], "QTYSHP1", [QTYSHP2] ),
"Location", "Location 2"
)
),
Ship1[PN],
"TOT", SUMX ( CURRENTGROUP (), [QTYSHP1] )
)
Unfortunately I am using direct query and I don't have the option to create a new table.
I like the union solution, it is very elegant but I can't make it work :(
