Create New Curve from Forecast

I have created this really cool tool in excel where I can take whatever projections another department gives me (we'll call this the future "track") and I can update it to my liking. 

 

Our track is built out on a weekly basis, and I would like to be able to change one, or multiples weeks' without changing the total, meaning the other weeks would all split the difference between the change, and the original total number, evenly. 

For example:

Track:                  Proposed Change       New Track

Week 1- 100        +50                             150

Week 2- 100                                            75

Week 3-100                                             75

Total - 400                                               400

 

Is there any way that I could set this up in a more user friendly way in Power BI? I would like the user to be able to put in whatever changes they believe is necessary, and to be able to to see the original track vs the new proposed track on a line graph. 

 

Thank you!!!

    You may try adding a calculated column.

    Column =
    IF (
        ISBLANK ( Table1[Proposed Change] ),
        Table1[Track]
            - DIVIDE (
                SUM ( Table1[Proposed Change] ),
                COUNTBLANK ( Table1[Proposed Change] )
            ),
        Table1[Track] + Table1[Proposed Change]
    )
