Convert currency without exchange rate

Hi, all!

Thank you in advance!

Hi @key_master_95 ,

Your data table may be complicated, if possible, please provide a simplified sample data for us to test, thank you.
This is a test dataset I created myself and I'm not sure if it matches the data model you are using:

I am using the following two DAXes for this calculation:

Total Sales in EUR = 
SELECTEDVALUE(Coffee[sales in EUR(unit price)]) * SELECTEDVALUE(Coffee[volume of sale])
Total Sales in CHF = 
SUMX('Coffee', 'Coffee'[Total Sales in EUR] / RELATED('Table'[EUR]) * RELATED('Table'[CHF]))

with country columns related it should work just the same. Only requirement would be that both need to be in the same data type (text) and both contain the same values: BE-BE or Belgium-Belgium. I am suposing here that in the country/currency table you have only one line per country. Please shere the error message.

The best solution would be to have a relationship between the coffee sale table and the rate table

Next, you can use a measure:

 or calculate a column.

 

Hi!

Thank you for the answer.

I can't build relation like Currency to currency 'cos in Coffee table haven't currency - only contries. 

I tried to implement your formula with connection Country to Contry, but it didn't work - PBI can't find related table (it's text of error)

with country columns related it should work just the same. Only requirement would be that both need to be in the same data type (text) and both contain the same values: BE-BE or Belgium-Belgium. I am suposing here that in the country/currency table you have only one line per country. Please shere the error message.
