Hiya,
I am using a custom template (Disconnected table) inside power bi to help me deliver a business layout.
Template:
I have created the following measures:
Base measure:
Total Amount = SUM('FACT'[Value])
Amount measure for Plan & Actual:
Amount (,000) =
VAR _Actual = CALCULATE([Total Amount], 'FACT'[Plan] = "A")
VAR _Plan = CALCULATE([Total Amount], 'FACT'[Plan] = "P")
Return
IF(
SELECTEDVALUE('Custom View'[Type]) = "Actual", _Actual,
IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Custom View'[Type]) = "Plan", _Plan,
IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Custom View'[Type]) = "VAR", (_Plan - _Actual),0)))+0
Dynamic measure to get me values per selected (In month , YTD, Full Year)
Dynamic Measure =
VAR _CurrentItem = SELECTEDVALUE(Template[SK])
VAR _Title = SELECTEDVALUE('Custom View'[Title])
VAR _Type = SELECTEDVALUE('Custom View'[Type])
VAR _InMonth = CALCULATE( [Amount (,000)], FILTER('FACT','FACT'[SK] = _CurrentItem))
VAR _category = SELECTEDVALUE(Template[Category])
VAR _YTD = CALCULATE(
[Amount (,000)],
FILTER(ALL('Calendar'), 'Calendar'[Date] IN DATESYTD('Calendar'[Date])),
'FACT'[SK] = _CurrentItem
)
VAR _FullYear = CALCULATE(
[Amount (,000)],
FILTER(ALL('Calendar'), 'Calendar'[Year] = SELECTEDVALUE('Calendar'[Year])),
'FACT'[SK]= _CurrentItem
)
Return
SWITCH(TRUE(),
_Title = "In Month", _InMonth,
_Title = "YTD", _YTD,
_Title = "Full Year", _FullYear,
BLANK()
)
The below matrix shows the correct values, but what I am struggling to get is the SubTotals per the layout.
i.e. "Finance Subtotal" = (SK1+SK2+SK3+SK4)
Missing Output:
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Many thanks
@H_insight First, please vote for this idea: https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=082203f1-594f-4ba7-ac87-bb91096c742e
This looks like a measure totals problem. Very common. See my post about it here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/DAX-Commands-and-Tips/Dealing-with-Measure-Totals/td-p/63376
Also, this Quick Measure, Measure Totals, The Final Word should get you what you need:

Thanks @Greg_Deckler .
It's remarkable to realize that this concept was initially proposed back in July 2018, and its 5 YEARS anniversary is fast approaching without any resolution in sight!
I see your approach of having "No Calculate", but for some reason, I am not able to apply it to my disconnected table. any chance you can provide the DAX code for me to explorer, please?
So far, here is my attempt:
