Thanks for replying to my question.

Thanks again.

Hi Joham ,
The funtion is different between crystal report and power bi report, it's not applicative to copy the relationship/formula from crystal report, please share me your dummy pbix (Upload it to Google drive/Dropbox/Onedrive and share the link here) and let me know the expected result , I'd like to provdie the further valuable advice.
