Get a desired table result in Power BI
Hi,
We're working for one of the client's data where we have the following columns :
Year
Fiscal period
Week
Forecast value
Actual Sales Value
-- Following is the table that we have been able to create.
Further, we want that for the remaining forecast value which is blank, it should show Actual sales value respectively.
For e.g.
For Fiscal period = 2 and Week =2 , Forecast is 6307,717.47 and Actual Sales = 6017162.28
while for Fiscal period = 2 and Week =3 , Forecast should show as 6017162.28
How can this be achieved for the whole table?

Anonymous Hard to be specific without sample data, etc. This custom matrix hierarchy might be the answer but difficult to tell. https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Quick-Measures-Gallery/The-New-Hotness-Custom-Matrix-Hierarchy/m-p/963588#M428

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.Hi Anonymous ,
You can create a matrix visual with the below Fields setttings:
If the above ones can't help you figure out, please provide some source data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples. It would be helpful to find out the solution. You can refer the following link to share the required info:
