Hi @AllanBerces ,
Your requirement can be easily handled with a calculated column in Power BI using the DAX formula below similar to the Excel example you produced:
Hour Equivalent =
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
'YourTable'[Trade] = "Scaff", 'YourTable'[Budgeted hrs],
ISBLANK('YourTable'[% Materials]), 'YourTable'[Budgeted hrs],
'YourTable'[% Materials] * 'YourTable'[Budgeted hrs]
)
Best regards,
