I imported a data model using DirectQuery and I want to convert revenue using the plan rate with a function.
I'm using the following formula:
Revenue at USD Plan = DIVIDE(Fact_Backlog[Revenue in local currency], RELATED('Plan Rate Lookup'[FY 24 Plan Rate]))However, I am encountering an error: The column 'Plan Rate Lookup[FY 24 Plan Rate]' either doesn't exist or doesn't have a relationship to any table available in the current context.
The relationship appears to be set up correctly. How can I resolve this issue? I understand that I'm working with DirectQuery, but the table relationships seem fine.
Maybe the reason is the fact table is a direct query and a lookup table is import model. Is there a way create relationship between direct query and import model?
Huh? Row context is iterating the table on the many-side of a relationship(fact table) . and I use related to retrieve unique value from lookup table. The data model and usage is identical to the article.
Hi @jzhao ,
Sorry my bad, I had it backwards, I'll delete my reply. But maybe you still need to provide your sample data to know what the problem is. Apologies!
Also I see that your table seems to be still connected to other tables, please check if there are other propagation paths between your table Fact_Backlog and table Plan Rate Lookup (i.e. there is a closed loop relationship between these two tables), if so, that could potentially lead to an unclear passing relationship.
Best Regards

RELATED is not normally something you use in a measure. Is your formula addressing columns or measures?
This is calculated column
