AlexTandem If I understood you correctly you need to sum two columns that are from different tables. You can do that by creating a meaure in first table as Table1Measure = Sum([column]). Then create measure in table 2 as Table2Measure = Sum([column]). Then simply create another measure that is the sum of two previous measures.

It's almost what I need, thank you!

I did as you said, but now I see another problem.

I need to sum total spent money (that's ok now) but also sum per every day for both yandex and Google.

 

When i use your method, one of the traffic sources shows me exactly the same ammount of money spent per each day.

For example, if I use cost and date from Yandex table and cost from Google table, in Google all the spent money are the same for each day.

 

I attache screenshot to show you how if looks like

Is there any way to sum each day for different tables?

 

Thank you!

    If you have two tables which are similar as below. You can try with following measure formula.

     

    Totalad = 
SUMX (
    Yandex,
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( adwords[adwords cost] ),
        FILTER ( adwords, adwords[Date] = Yandex[Date] )
    )
)
