SELECTEDVALE Alternative

Please help with an alternative to SELECTEDVALUE since this is not supported in excel power query. Here is a sample of what I was trying to do.

 

Budget Selected Period =

var selectedperiod = SELECTEDVALUE(SelectPeriod[Select Period])

Return

switch
(
true(),
selectedperiod="Current Month", [Budget CM],
selectedperiod="Quarter To Date", [Budget QTD],
selectedperiod="Year to Date",[Budget YTD]
)

RETURN
    SWITCH (
        TRUE (),
        selectedperiod = "Current Month", [Budget CM],
