Forecast/Actuals Calculations

Hi All, I have tw tables Actuals and forecast that are connected through calendar table via calendar date.

 

I want to create a matrix where I can see one column that represents Actual/Forecast i.e. if actuals are not available then forecast amount should be added but if actual is available then only actuals should be updated in column.

 

Below is the expected output.

 

YearQtrActualsForecasted Forecasted/Actuals
2022Q1500300500
2022Q2600400600
2022Q30150150
2022Q40500500
  110013501750

 

I tried to create a dax but not getting the correct output

 

Actuals/Forecast =
IF (
    HASONEVALUE (Date Dim'[calendar date]),
    IF ( [Actuals] = 0,[Forecast Amount],[Actuals] ),
    SUMX ('RPT Date Dim',
        IF ( [Actuals] = 0, [Forecast Amount],[Actuals] )
    )
 
 
Please help.

You can do this much easier if you keep the Actuals blank (rather than at 0)

 

Forecasted/Actuals = COALESCE([Actuals],[Forecasted])
