    Hello @karabryan ,

    Could you please try to use firstnonblank in your formula like:

    LOOKUPVALUE(
    FIRSTNONBLANK(Currency[NewRate],1),
    Currency[NewSourceTarget],
    Booking[NewSourceTarget]
    Currency[Date],
    Booking[Date]
)

    Hi karabryan ,

     

    In order to have a more permanent solution believe you need to do the following:

    • Create a measure with the following code:

     

    ExchangeRate = MIN(ExchangeRateTable[ExchangeRate])

     

    • Now create a new measure to make the calculation:

     

    Valueconverted = SUMX(Table, Table[Amount] * [ExchangeRate])

     

    Be aware that you need to have the columns from your many-to-1 relationship from the oneside on the visualization.

     

    You SUMX table need to be adjusted to your model.

     

    this is just a generic solution needs to be adjusted to your model and needs.

Unfortunately that didn't work.  Here are my print screens:

 

The top table is the ERP CurrExRate table.  The New Rate is a decimal number now.  The second table is the BookingsTerritory table with the new column formula showing in the formula bar.  No errors on the formula, but no results, either.

Hi karabryan ,

 

I'm looking at the table you are presenting and there is row in blank. I want to see the data view of these tables and not the visualizations is that possible?

 

If you want share it trough private message since information can be sensitive
