Need Help - Filter tables using OR criteria from two table
- Anonymous4 years ago
Hi PradeepDive ,
You can use LOOKVALUE function. However, if there is a relationship between tables, it's more efficient to use the RELATED function.
Sample data.
Table 1
Table 2
Table 3
1.If there're no relationships.
You can create a calculated table as follows.
Table = SUMMARIZE ( FILTER ( ADDCOLUMNS ( 'Table 1', "c1", LOOKUPVALUE ( 'Table 2'[Project ID], 'Table 2'[Project ID], 'Table 1'[Project ID] ), "c2", LOOKUPVALUE ( 'Table 3'[Resource ID], 'Table 3'[Resource ID], 'Table 1'[Resource ID] ) ), [c1] = [Project ID] && [c2] = [Resource ID] ), [Hrs], [Project ID], [Resource ID] )If there're relationships.
You can create a calculated table as follows..
Table 4 = SUMMARIZE ( FILTER ( ADDCOLUMNS ( 'Table 1', "c1", RELATED ( 'Table 2'[Project ID] ), "c2", RELATED ( 'Table 3'[Resource ID] ) ), [c1] = [Project ID] && [c2] = [Resource ID] ), [Hrs], [Project ID], [Resource ID] )Best Regards,

Hi PradeepDive ,
Here's the solution in Power Query.
1.Merge queries from two tables.
You’ll get this.
2.Expand columns you need.
3.Add a custom column.
= if [Project ID]=[Table 2.Project ID] and [Resource ID]=[Table 3.Resource ID] then 1 else 0
4.Filter the rows which value is 1.
5.You can remove the unneeded columns.

Thanks Stephen,
I am already using the same approach currently, but as my tables are huge it takes lots of time for merging. I was looking for something which can use to get the output in less and if possible in single line (but not necessary)
Appreciate your time to answer my query though.
