    I've updated the PBIX file from that simple model and have it working as I think you need.

     

    Bascially I've added a +0 to the end to the end of the sales measure and also was careful about which shop field to use in my matrix.  I use the field from Table2 rather than Table1

    I use [Table 2] to effectively operate as a dimenstion table (one row per shop and now more).  Which allows me to create a relationship with [Table1] and [Sales] that have many lines for each shop.

     

    Otherwise you can't have a relationship between [Sales] and [Table2] and need to rely on some pretty in-efficient methods to create the calcualtion.
