I am very new to DAX. Please help
I have these two tables connected by "Centre"
I have a slicer showing 'Month' from YTD table
Then a table measure showing the
Centre, Average of Booked session. I want to add a new column there from second table "Budgets"
So when in slicer i click Dec 23, the table shows Centre name, "Avg of booked Sessions", But i also want to show the budget % from budget table as per the Month. So when you click on Dec 23, its show Dec % from Budget table and when i click Jan 24, it shows Jan % for that centre
YTD Table
Centre | Booked session | Month |
ABC | 40 | Dec-23 |
ABC | 30 | Dec-23 |
ABC | 50 | Jan-24 |
ABC | 30 | Jan-24 |
DEF | 40 | Dec-23 |
DEF | 80 | Dec-23 |
DEF | 90 | Jan-24 |
DEF | 70 | Jan-24 |
Budgets table
Centre | 2023-12 | 2024-01 |
ABC | 87% | 80% |
DEF | 60% | 50% |

To do that, you first need to create a new table with Center, Month and Budget %, where you will have all the % values in a column layout, the current layout of the Budget Table can be copied in Power Query do unpivot. The, You can create a relationship between the Budget Table and the New Table. I also added a dates table for proper modeling.

Thanks so much. I am exporting the data Excel, so you mean first manuplate the data in Excel and export and make the 2 new tables in PBI. Or these new tables can be created straight in PBI?
@Mamtas
Please refer the attched Power BI file, go to Power Query and check. You can reference the source table and do the manipulation in it.
