lookupvalue filtering 2 columns

Hi,

 

sorry if this problem was already solved here, i was trying to find it but none of the solutions i found helped (but i'm a beginner).

 

I have two tables: 

tab1.jpgtab2.jpg

i need to get the passing coefficients from the second table to the first one as a new column. Both group 1 and group 2 can be duplicate but the combinations of the groups are unique. The coefficients do not have to be unique. obviously i can't use LOOKUPVALUE and i'm kind of stuck here. Can anyone help me please?

Try this

 

coef =
CALCULATE (
    FIRSTNONBLANK ( Table2[Coef], 1 ),
    FILTER (
        Table2,
        Table2[group1] = Table1[group1]
            && Table2[group2] = Table1[group2]
    )
)

Try this

 

coef =
CALCULATE (
    FIRSTNONBLANK ( Table2[Coef], 1 ),
    FILTER (
        Table2,
        Table2[group1] = Table1[group1]
            && Table2[group2] = Table1[group2]
    )
)

It works well, but just wonder why the lookupvalue function dosen't work?

I had the same problem, thank so much

it works, thank you @Zubair_Muhammad!

LookupValue should also work. Try this

 

coef =
LOOKUPVALUE (
    Table2[coef],
    Table2[group1], Table1[group1],
    Table2[group2], Table1[group2]
)
