Hi, RobRayborn 

 

Can you provide a simple PBIX file for testing? Sensitive information can be removed in advance. What kind of expected results do you expect? You can also show it with pictures.

    I was able to determine that the DAX measure I am using is working as expected. The problem ended up being a rounding issue. The total Sales amount or [Daily Sales GBP] is a SUMX measure that gets rounded due to converting it to a Whole Number type, however once it takes into effect the Currency Conversion (at each row amount) the rounding for the converted amount is no longer rounded. at that point converting it to a Whole number re-rounds the amount and increased the overall annual amount by about 10K.  
    I ended up going backwards and doing my GBP and EURO conversion amounts on Power Query side.
