Measure Total not correct when created from 2 different tables

krish007na — Fri, 11 Jun 2021 06:07:27 GMT

I have 2 tables as ProductTarget and Signals. I want to create a measure like ProductTarget[Target] * Signals[Value]. Some of the ProductTarget[Target] values are 0. So the multiplication will be 0.
I have used Dax like SUMX(ProductTarget[Target]) * SUMX(Signals[Value]). It gives correct values at row level, but total is incorrect.

If you see the total should be 0.02 as second value 0. But instead total is showing like total(sum) of Value (0.65) * total(sum) of target(0.0449) = 0.03.
I want to do multiplication and then summation. But in this case it is doing summation first and then multiplication.
How do I can acheive this?

Hope these two tables are connected using a relationship?

Try this measure, if it doesn't work share your sample PBIX file.

Port Exp Wgt =
SUMX(
ProductTarget,
ProductTarget[Target] * RELATED (Signals[Value])
)

RELATED is not working

Please share a sample PBIX file. You can save in Google or One Drive and share the link here.

@krish007na

Your model needs to be fixed first. You have created Many-to-many relationship and the whole file behaves unexpectedly.
If Signal is the dimension file, remove duplicates from the Column "Sedol" and set the relation to One-To-Many.

Hi @krish007na ,

You can create another new measure as below to replace the previous measure [Port wgt avg]:

Measure = SUMX(GROUPBY('ProductTarget','ProductTarget'[BMName],'ProductTarget'[Desc]),[Port wgt avg])

Best Regards
