Hello,

I am wanting to convert each transaction value to NZD, at the selected reporting date.

I am currently getting this error, can anyone help with my dax please?

Thanks for your time

watje255_ju , you lookup is giving more then one value.

Put it inside minx/maxx /Averagex

Minx(Table, <Your lookup code>)

Hi amitchandak , thanks for your reply, could you clarify where abouts in the Dax formula?

FX Translation =

VAR FXTranslationDate =MAX(DimDate[DateKey])

Return SUMX( FactAccountsReceivable,

FactAccountsReceivable[Amount Currency] /

LOOKUPVALUE( FactExchangeRate[Exchange Rate],

FactExchangeRate[Valid From], FXTranslationDate,

FactExchangeRate[From Currency Key], FactAccountsReceivable[Currency Key]) )

Thanks!!

Hi watje255_ju ,

You may try this Measure.

FX Translation = VAR FXTranslationDate = MAX ( DimDate[DateKey] ) VAR SelectedCurrencyKey = MAX ( FactAccountsReceivable[Company Key] ) VAR LookedExchangeRate = CALCULATE ( MAX ( FactExchangeRate[Exchange Rate] ), FILTER ( FactExchangeRate, FactExchangeRate[Valid From] = FXTranslationDate && FactExchangeRate[To Currency Key] = SelectedCurrencyKey ) ) RETURN // SUMX( FactAccountsReceivable, // FactAccountsReceivable[Amount Currency] / // LOOKUPVALUE( FactExchangeRate[Exchange Rate], // FactExchangeRate[Valid From], FXTranslationDate, // FactExchangeRate[To Currency Key], FactAccountsReceivable[Currency Key]) ) SUMX ( FactAccountsReceivable, FactAccountsReceivable[Amount Currency] / LookedExchangeRate )

The result looks like this.

Also, attached the pbix file as reference.

Hi v-cazheng-msft thank you very much!! I just changed the

VAR SelectedCurrencyKey =
    MAX ( FactAccountsReceivable[Company Key] )

company key to currency key and then the formula worked perfectly, thank you so much!
