    Thanks for the reply from Kaviraj11 , please allow me to provide another insight: 

    Hi  Anonymous ,

    Are you referring to the incorrect total row calculation? You can consider using the IF() + HASONEVALUE() function to determine if it’s a total. If it is, you can perform calculations based on your requirements, such as average, sum, etc.

    Measure =
var _table=
SUMMARIZE('Table',[Name],"Value",[Count])
return
IF(
    HASONEVALUE('Table'[Name]),[Count],SUMX(_table,[Value]))

     

     

    Best Regards,

Hi,

 

if you’re trying to get the correct total for distinct counts across multiple rows per person, you might encounter issues because the distinct count in the total row doesn’t simply add up the individual distinct counts from each category. Instead, it calculates the distinct count across the entire dataset.

 

Create Measure 

Total Distinct Names =
SUMX(
VALUES('Table'[Name]),
CALCULATE(
DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Name]),
FILTER(
ALL('Table'),
'Table'[Attribute] IN {"Agile", "Bold", "Engaged", "Not", "Smart"}
)
)
)
