    since you have provided very little information about your model and data, this is a bit of guess work. Are you sure you can't handle fees within a calculated column, like this:

    sales fee =
    VAR _sumFees =
        transactions[total order value]
            * LOOKUPVALUE (
                dimFees[base transaction fee];
                dimFees[source]; transactions[source]
            )
            + transactions[total order value]
                * LOOKUPVALUE (
                    dimFees[percentage of total order];
                    dimFees[source]; transactions[source]
                )
    VAR _minFee =
        LOOKUPVALUE ( dimFees[minimum value]; dimFees[source]; transactions[source] )
    RETURN
        IF ( _sumFees > _minFee; _sumFees; _minFee )

     

    if you need it as a measure you should look into the sumx-function

    Measure =
    SUMX (
        VALUES ( transactions[transactionID] );
        VAR _source =
            SELECTEDVALUE ( transactions[source] )
        VAR _minFee =
            LOOKUPVALUE ( dimFees[minimum value]; dimFees[source]; _source )
        VAR _baseFeePrTrans =
            LOOKUPVALUE ( dimFees[base transaction fee]; dimFees[source]; _source )
        VAR _totalFee =
            LOOKUPVALUE ( dimFees[percentage of total order]; dimFees[source]; _source )
        RETURN
            IF (
                CALCULATE ( SUM ( transactions[total order value] ) ) * _totalFee
                    + CALCULATE ( COUNT ( transactions[transactionID] ) ) * _baseFeePrTrans < _minFee;
                _minFee;
                CALCULATE ( SUM ( transactions[total order value] ) ) * _totalFee
                    + CALCULATE ( COUNT ( transactions[transactionID] ) ) * _baseFeePrTrans
            )
    )
