related function between three tables

Hi,

 

I have three tables say A, B and C.

Relationship Between tables are follows:

Table A has Primarykeys of B and C

B to A - One to Many

C to A - One to Many

 

Now I want to derive a column in table A (calculated column) based on the combition of some descriptive columns of B and C

For Example:  Table A.calculated col  =SWITCH(TRUE(),

                                                               tableB.title = 'abc' and tablec.code='kon', 'pi'

                                                              tableB.title='phg' and tableC.code='poj', 'lm',

                                                             ' unknown')

 

Please explain how shall i use related function for the above scenario

@marri,

 

If the table relationships are created without problems. You could try the DAX below.

Table A.calculated col =
var tableBtitle = RELATED(tableB[title])
var tableCcode = RELATED(tableC[code])
return SWITCH(TRUE(),   tableBtitle  = "abc" && tableCcode ="kon", "pi",
			tableBtitle ="phg" && tableCcode ="poj", "lm",
			"unknown")

Hi,

 

I have three tables say A,B and C

The relationship between tables are listed below

 

Table A-B - Many to One

Table A-C - Many to One

Table A has primary key of B and C as different columns

Now I want to derive a column in table A based on the combination of values of columns of Table B and C


   For Eample:  Calculated column in table A =SWITCH(TRUE(),
                                                                                     A.title="Bc" && B.code="lo", "pf",
                                                                                    A.title="ko" && B.code="rt", "ju",
                                                                                     A.title="we","pm"
                                                                                      "Unknown"
                                                                                      )

 

Pleae explain me how to perform the above using related function

 

Thanks In Advance
