Correct Total value in Matrix using Switch Formula

[reggiete2005]

Hello All, 

I am needing help to correct my Total calculation in the below Switch formula, for now i set it to blank() 

New_Outstanding =

VAR RoleName = SELECTEDVALUE(Loan_Contacts[ROLENAME])

RETURN

    SWITCH(

        TRUE(),

        RoleName = "Closer", [KPI_CDSent],

        RoleName = "Disclosure Tech", [KPI_DisclosuresSent],

        RoleName = "Funder", [KPI_FundedPackagesSent],

        RoleName = "Setup", [KPI_SubmittedToUW],

        RoleName = "Underwriter", [KPI_InitialCreditDecisions],

        BLANK()

    )

@Greg_Deckler  Thanks for your contribution on this thread.

Hi @reggiete2005 ,

Please create another new measure as below and replace the original measure [New_Outstanding] on the matrix:

Measure =
SUMX (
    GROUPBY (
        'Loan_Contacts',
        'Loan_Contacts'[CALENDAR_DATE].[Month],
        'Loan_Contacts'[ROLENAME],
        'Loan_Contacts'[NAME]
    ),
    [New_Outstanding]
)

If the above ones can't help you figure out, please provide some raw data in your table 'Loan_Contacts'  (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples. It would be helpful to find out the solution. You can refer the following link to share the required info:

And It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community. Thank you.

@Greg_Deckler That did not solve my issue. I need in the above Switch formula logic to summarize the totals for each month for each of the row totals for each RoleName
