Measure not Totaling Correctly

Bryanna — Thu, 18 May 2023 21:50:03 GMT

Hi,

I have tried a bunch of different ways to fix this and i still cannot get this to total correctly. I have a measure taking my Transaction Qty divided by Units Per Case to get the Total Cases,however, it is not totaling correctly.

I tried the below measure and the quantities are right when i go line by line but the total is still very low compared to when i export the data into excel.

Any ideas? Below are some of the measures that i've tried.

SUMX(VALUES('Transactions'[Order]),[Total Cases])

IF(COUNTROWS(VALUES([Transactions [Order]))=1,[Total Cases],SUMX(VALUES([Transactions [Order]),[Total Cases])

IF(HASONEFILTER([Transactions [Order]),[Total Cases],SUMX(VALUES([Transcation[Order]),[Total Cases]))

Your approach with a measure like this is correct. Do you have other columns in your visual? If so, you likely need to use SUMMARIZE instead.

SUMX(VALUES('Transactions'[Order]),[Total Cases])
