Dear Power BI community,
I am seeking for your support regarding the following question:
I have two columns:
* Column 1 with actual sales
* Column 2 with budget sales
* Both stored in a table showing these values per week
I want to create a third column (Column 3 - Calculated Sales) as a new measure which should contain the value per week from column 1. If this column does not have a value, the value should be taken from column 2.
Can someone help me with the DAX formula to be used?
Below a screenshot of the desired output:
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

You can add as a Column
Calculated Sales= IF( ISBLANK(Table[Actual Sales]) , Table[Budget Sales] , Table[Actual Sales])
