Slicer - Selecting multiple items messes up total value
Hope someone can help.

What am I doing wrong?
Hi PowerBINoob321 ,
Firstly you have to bring the conversionrate in to your combined table by creating a calculated column using lookup value funtion based on the country.
After that you can create another column for conversion simply you can say ,
BudgetsPowerBI[Value]*BudgetsPowerBI[Conversion]
This should help.

Thanks for the awesome quick response.
I learnt:
- Lookupvalue- Better to expand on you main value table
Cheers!
