Sorry, it's not at all clear.
Please follow the recommendations in the thread I posted. You need to provide sample data, model structure, expected output and if possible a sample PBIX file. 
Otherwise it a shot in the absolute dark.

For example, what do you mean by "random target value"? Is this "random target value" by date & salesman? by salesman? Do you want it to be calculated once? Dynamically (not sure it's possible...)?

I need a Measure or Column to store my random target value given to Salesman 

& collected acutals aginst the Target achieved 

Hoping this is clear

Collection as on 04-09-21BalanceSalesmanCollection Target in % (measure or column)Collected Actual (output)
04-09-20211000150% 
04-09-20212000265% 
04-09-20213000325% 
04-09-20214000475% 
04-09-202150052% 

 

Eg: Salesman 1 must collect 50% of his balance amount that is 1000

what he acheived must be stored in the collected actuals output
