Lookup Value Blank Result

Hi, 

Hope someone can resolve my inquiry, I used dax function lookupvalue() but the results are all blanks.

I need to get their supervisor email in resource table the lookup reference should be Resource[Employee_ID] and Workday[Supervisor] both of them are whole number data types.

 

But it shows blank per each rows.

Hope can share with me an idea or other approach to get their right supervisor email address.

This is created to new column, I need to create column for their supervisor email address base on their supervisor ID.

Spoiler
 



WorkdayReport Table:

ResourceTable: (I didn't ss email address because the column was too many.)

This table I need to get the supervisor email address.

Use TREATAS() instead of LOOKUPVALUE.
