Add calculated values to non calculated column?

In Power BI I have a column that gets data from an excel file that is updated every day. However for days it is not updated for yet, I want to add a calculated value that projects what the upcoming hours could be based on past values.

I'm unsure as to how to add these calculated values in blank cells in a column that gets data from another file

@michellerosen,

Basically, you would need to add a new column using formula as below.

Column = IF(ISBLANK(Table2[Sales]),500, Table2[Sales])

If the above example doesn’t help, please share sample data of your table.
