Hi, @Anonymous 

You need to follow the star schema or snowflake schema in your data model. In your case you probably have more than 1 fact tables. In order to get correct results it is good to follow it. You can use LOOKUPVALUE instead of RELATED but this will not be a solution and maybe will cause some issues with data.

@Anonymous , Based on what I got. Related can only be used from 1 side to many side. You can create new column on Many side .

 

You can try relatedtable for 1 side

example

sumx(relatedtable(projectData]),[Est Fee])
