How to handle multiple currency columns?

Hi, 

I'm working on the application, the fact table contains multiple currency columns, for instance, Document Currency, Local Currency, and Global Currency, all measures are built in the same style, Sales DC, Sales LC, and Sales GC. 

Based on the requirements I should have two sliders, the first slider allows one to select a type of Currency (DC, LC, and GC), and the second slicer selects currency (EUR, USD, etc.).

Do you have any ideas on how to handle this?

Hi,

 

I would suggest to Unpivot Columns - Currency, Local Currency, and Global Currency & Sales DC, Sales LC, and Sales GC in Power Query seperately as two steps. You will have two attributes and two values as row based. This will help you in Putting the Attribute columns in Slicer.
