Total not working with visual calculation
I am using the visual calculation feature and am getting inconsistent results with totals on the bottom of a table. I have two calculations in the same table and one is totaling and the other isn't. I can't seem to find a formatting option that will force the calculation.
The one that is working is:
Remaining = Convert ([On Hand] - [Order Qty], DOUBLE)
The one that isn't working is:
Remaining Value = Convert (([On Hand]-[Order Qty])* [Cost], CURRENCY)
I have tried converting the one that isn't working to double as well and it doesn't have the outcome.
Thanks in advance for thoughts on what I may be doing wrong or if this is a bug with a new feature.

I have the same settings with different results. The calculated columns other than the last are working fine.
