Hi matka123499 ,

 

I would only add to tharunkumarRTK solution, in the formula box of the custom column in Power Query:

 

if Text.Contains( [ExpenseBasis_ID], "Percentage" ) then [Amount1] else [Amount1] * 12

 

This suggestion comes because you state that "If ExpenseBasis_ID has "Percentage" " so I would imagine that the ExpenseBasis column may sometimes have some other characters when its Percentage.

 

Hope this answer solves your problem!
