Create column with related fields from two tables (In Table view)

Hi, Table 1 contains Jobname column with X,Y,Z. I want to create another column Time in this table with related fields from other two tables matching this X,Y,Z. Table 2 contains time of X, Table 3 contains time of Y, Z. 

TABLE 1  Table 2  Table 3  Result Table should be like this
jobnameTime jobnameTime jobname  jobnameTime
X  X9:00 AM Y10:00 PM X9:00 AM
Y     Z11:00 AM Y10:00 PM

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Create calculated column.

 

Time =
var _table2=
MINX(
    FILTER(ALL('Table2'),'Table2'[jobname]=EARLIER('Table1'[jobname])),[Time])
return
IF(
    _table2=BLANK(),
 MINX(
    FILTER(ALL('Table3'),'Table3'[jobname]=EARLIER('Table1'[jobname])),[Time]) ,_table2
)

 

2. Result:
