Need to return value not sum

I have 2 tables in my model:-

  1. 'Requisitions' = Many records
  2. 'ExternalFillRatio' = Unique records by division

I have starting creating a Power Pivot from the 'Requisitions' table using 'Division'. I want to bring in a column from 'ExternalFillRatio' named 'Ratio' to the corresponding divsion. I only want to bring in the value that is matched to the division. I have tried using a column i.e. = RELATED(ExternalFillRatio[Ratio]) but this isn't the answer I am looking for. This creates a grand total in the Power Pivot. All i want is the value e.g (Ratio) that matches the divsion from ExternalFillRatio table.

 

Does anyone know how I can achieve this? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi @Jimbo1980 

 

Maybe you can try to create a virtual table as a variable in the measure or calculated column, then it could be more easier to get the target outcome.

If possible, please provide your data(exclude sensitive data) or create some sample data, so that we can help you better.

try this calculated column

Ratio = LOOKUPVALUE(ExternalFillRatio[Ratio], ExternalFillRatio[Division], Requisitions[Division])

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately it still creates the same problem.
