add row based on missing data

I have to two DB's that I am trying to keep the same reports.
here is the dilemma

Table1 and Table 2 have all the same attributes but Table 2 has one that table 1 doesn't.
This breaks the reporting with "fix this" because the attribute is being relied on.

I am able to pull that value from another table "Table3"
So my goal is:
If Attribute name is missing 'meeting' then add a row with Roomname that is missing it.
Then get value from table3 column 1

 

Table1:

 

attributenameroomnameValue
inuseRoom40
inuseRoom20
inuseRoom11
DesktopRoom11
inuseRoom30

 

 

Table 2

attributenameroomnameValue
inuseRoom40
inuseRoom20
inuseRoom11
DesktopRoom11
inuseRoom30
meetingRoom30
meetingRoom11

Hi @rtillery2000,

 

It's hard to add rows. The solution could be creating a calculated table with all the attributes.

Table =
DISTINCT (
    UNION ( VALUES ( Table1[attributename] ), VALUES ( Table2[attributename] ) )
)

Capture
