Get currency exchange rate per each quarter within dataset

Hi all,

 

I've been going around in circles with SUMMARIZE, GROUP BY with no effect. Here's my problem:

I have a currency exchange rate table with the following columns: Currency Code, Currency Rate, Valid From, Qtr

Above data is entered by my finance dept. on a monthly basis into our source system. I'm retrieving all of it but I need to find out what the currency rate was at the end of each Qtr, so the ideal output (probably as a new table) would look like:

Currency CodeCurrency RateValid From
AUD1.77725401/12/2022
BRL6.33240601/12/2022
EUR1.16922201/12/2022
USD1.23157501/12/2022
ZAR20.18480801/12/2022
AUD1.79081101/03/2023
BRL6.26821401/03/2023
EUR1.1350901/03/2023
USD1.223401/03/2023
ZAR21.81242101/03/2023
CNY8.36898201/03/2023

 

I usually try to solve things as much as I can on my own before turning to the community. I could really appreciate someone shining some light on this, I must be missing something.

I managed to fix my own problem by using the following 

Quarterly Rates = SUMMARIZE(
    'IFS Currency Exchange Rates',
    'IFS Currency Exchange Rates'[CURRENCY_CODE],
    'IFS Currency Exchange Rates'[Qtr],
    "Max Date",
    MAX('IFS Currency Exchange Rates'[VALID_FROM]),
    "Rates",
     LOOKUPVALUE('IFS Currency Exchange Rates'[CURRENCY_RATE],
            'IFS Currency Exchange Rates'[VALID_FROM],
             MAX('IFS Currency Exchange Rates'[VALID_FROM]),
            'IFS Currency Exchange Rates'[CURRENCY_CODE],
            'IFS Currency Exchange Rates'[CURRENCY_CODE]))
