Hello @Anonymous 

 

just sum them 🙂

sumxtwice = SUMX('Table1';'Table1'[Column1])+SUMX('Table2';'Table2'[Column2])

If you need a single SUMX for two fields in different tables, use something like the following:

 

Measure =
SUMX(
   TableName,
   TableName[Field] * RELATED(TableName2[DifferentField])
   )

The tables have to have a relationship, and this assumes you are going from the many table to the one table. For example, you are multiplying quantities in a sales fact table against the cost of goods from a product dimension table.

Total Revenue =
SUMXSales,
                Sales[Quantity_Sold] * ( RELATED Products[Unit_Price] ) - RELATED ( Products[Unit_Cost]  )   )

What if I want to use sumx table and multiply it with another another table on row leavel. (use  first sumx as base table and multiply from another table on row leavel. ) 
sumxMultiply = SUMX('Table1';'Table1'[Column1]) * SUMX('Table2';'Table2'[Column2])
I think totla sum will be not be right.  

 

It won't be. You'd need to do it through a common dimension table

 

test measure =
SUMX(
    Products,
    RELATED( table1[field] )
        * RELATED( table2[field] )
)

 

But that won't be right unless the product table is at the right granularity. You should probably do a merge in Power Query and do the math there.

But either way, this should be a new thread. This post was marked solved over a year ago.
