Hi,
I'm trying to create a measure (#2) based on another measure (#1).
Measure1 = CALCULATE(sum('DATA'[Amount]),'DATA'[Account]="Revenue")
Measure2 = CALCULATE([Measure1],'DATA'[Category]="CATEGORY1")+ CALCULATE([Measure1],'DATA'[Category]="CATEGORY2")
(Category is a calculated column in DATA that returns a category based on a related field in another table)
Measure2 correctly populates revenue for CATEGORY1 and 2. The problem: for some reason, Measure2 is also populating CATEGORY1 & 2 totals for categories that have no revenue (that aren't CATEGORY1 or 2). Can anyone help me understand why calculate is behaving this way and/or how to fix? Many thanks!!

Hi @jkapso751
please try
Measure2 =
CALCULATE (
[Measure1],
KEEPFILTERS ( 'DATA'[Category] IN { "CATEGORY1", "CATEGORY2" } )
)
