Matrix Table not working as expected

Hi,

 

I am working on to create Matrix table with given data where i am looking for count based on Two Categories and SUM of Total Rows and Columns at end.

 

This is what i have;

 

 

 

The result i am looking for is like;

As you can see in above screen shot, Sum of Total column and Rows based on Categories

 

But, I am getting unexpected result which you can see below;

 

So far the number inside the tables are correct but totals are incorrect my case. Please help me with solution becuase it does look like simple for many expert where i am really struggling to get correct total. Also, you can see total column are distinct count of case which correct but i want SUM of column not count of column. The same case with ROW total.

 

Let me know if you need any more information, i would be more than happy to provide you any time.

 

Thanks in advance.

    Is your measure a distinctcount?  If so, try just a regular COUNT().  Also, what columns are you putting on the matrix to get the A and C columns?  Basis is the parent column, but are A and C Age and Color?

     

    If this works for you, please mark it as the solution.  Kudos are appreciated too.  Please let me know if not.

      HI,

       

      THank you for your response.

       

      Yes i have already use COUNT() which is C in this case.

       

      Here C and A are two different value columns which are counting number of cases and number (C) of Aggrievedname (A). Each Basis will have C and A.

       

      Thanks

        I looked again at your initial post and both the data and pivot tables.  It really looks like it is working correctly.  It appears that maybe you have selected to do a distinctcount aggregation on the CaseID column, which would result in that table.  Which field did you place in the values area of your pivot table, and what is the selected aggregation?  I think you just want a straight count of the case ID column (since you have duplicate case ID values in that first column.

         

        If this works for you, please mark it as the solution.  Kudos are appreciated too.  Please let me know if not.
