Hi @NaniG 

Your explanation is not very clear but I surmise you are looking for INTERSECT instead of EXCEPT. Try this:

CALCULATETABLE (
    ZKB_MATERIAL,
    INTERSECT (
        VALUES ( ZKB_MATERIAL[MATERIAL] ),
        VALUES ( 'acrylic sheets'[Column1] )
    )
)

 If it does not work, please show a sample of your relevant tables and the expected result
