    Hi cjcj ,

    If you can't use the RELATED function, you can modify the formula like this:

    TEST =
VAR _T =
    ADDCOLUMNS (
        'table1',
        "temp",
            MAXX (
                FILTER ( 'table2', 'table2'[ID] = EARLIER ( table1[ID] ) ),
                'table2'[temp]
            )
    )
RETURN
    SUMX (
        _T,
        SWITCH (
            TRUE (),
            [color] = "RED"
                && [temp] = "WARM", 2345,
            [color] = "BLUE"
                && [temp] = "HOT", 1345
        )
    )

    It can also get the correct result.

    I attach my sample below for your reference.

Hi cjcj ,

According to your description, I create a sample.

table1:

table2:

The two tables are related with the ID column. Here's my solution.

Create a measure.

TEST =
VAR _T =
    ADDCOLUMNS ( 'table1', "temp", RELATED ( 'table2'[temp] ) )
RETURN
    SUMX (
        _T,
        SWITCH (
            TRUE (),
            [color] = "RED"
                && [temp] = "WARM", 2345,
            [color] = "BLUE"
                && [temp] = "HOT", 1345
        )
    )

As you can see, only the ID1 and ID2 match the condition. Get the correct result.

I attach my sample below for your reference.

v-yanjiang-msft Thank you for your response!  I am getting an error saying the Parameter is not the correct type.  Since I am using DirectQuery, I am not sure how or if the 2 tables are related.

 

ADDCOLUMNS ( 'table1', "temp", RELATED ( 'table2'[temp] ) )
