Hi,
I do understand now how the total shown is calculated. Thank you that was helpfull.
I've been trying to get the sum of this column with the hasonefilter function (to be honest i do not completely understand that function so using it is a bit difficult), but I cannot seem to make it work.
This is my formula now:
Start in ANG =
SUM('Currency converter'[Exchange]) * [Totaal start]
I did try a more advance way of recalculating amounts based on conversion rates but that was to advance for me.
I am really new to PowerBI so I'm still struggling a bit with the basics.
kind regards, Lisa
