I want create a new column in Power Query editor using the below dax

I have created below DAX to convert the values from another table using Lookup and concatination in front end. it is working as expected. 

N_FX Rate = LOOKUPVALUE (
    'FX Rate'[Conversion factor],
    'FX Rate'[year-month-currency],
    CONCATENATE (
        CONCATENATE (
            '1 external workforce'[Year],
            '1 external workforce'[Month]
            ),
            '1 external workforce'[Invoice currency]
            )
            )

=#"FX Rate"{[#"year-month-currency"=Text.Format("#[Year]#[Month]#[Invoice currency]",_)]}?[Conversion factor]?

Hi Daniel- Thanks for your responce.

 

I have tried with above query and it ran successfully but values are showing null.
= Table.AddColumn(#"Removed Other Columns", "F_X", each #"FX Rate"{[#"year-month-currency"=Text.Format("#[Year1]#[Month1]#[Invoice currency]",_)]}?[Conversion factor]?)
