Let me know if you have any advice!

Hi @MusaLU8990 ,
You can use "Reference" to copy the other three tables, and then filter the three tables you need, and when the data of your main table is updated, the other three tables will also be updated.

yeah thanks ! seems work.
May i ask another think: this new table that has been create, is it something that i can use to run some query? e.g.
The new table created (the reference one) should be enrich taking data from other tables.
Thanks Luca
Hi @MusaLU8990 ,
Yes, it's possible. You could learn about the Merge Queries.
Please kindly refer to
Merge queries overview - Power Query | Microsoft Learn
You can merge two tables directly by a matching column.
