DAX Distinct Count Grand Total Showing incorrect value

[Hijbul_Bari]

Why my Calculation didnt give correct Grand Total. Grand Total will be 33 but showing 44. Please help.

SUMX(

VALUES(data[Date]),

CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(data[Wrap-up]),DATESINPERIOD(data[Date],MAX(data[Date]),-2,DAY))

)

Same problem happened even I remove Distinct Count. Grand Total will be 38 but showing 48.

SUMX(VALUES(data[Date]),

CALCULATE(COUNT(data[Wrap-up]), DATESINPERIOD(data[Date],MAX(data[Date]),-2,DAY))

)

How do I get the correct Grand Total.

Hi  @Hijbul_Bari ,

Here are the steps you can follow：

1. Create measure.

Count_measure =
COUNTX(FILTER(ALL(data),'data'[Date]<=MAX('data'[Date])&&'data'[Date]>MAX('data'[Date])-2),[Wrap-up])

Sum_Total =
var _table=SUMMARIZE('data','data'[Date],"_value",[Count_measure])
return
IF(HASONEVALUE('data'[Date]),[Count_measure],SUMX( _table,[_value]))

2. Result:

Hi @Hijbul_Bari 
Don't think of the grand total as a grand sum. It is acually evaluated seperately same as any other cell in the matrix or pivot table. It really depends on your data to realize what is the problem. If possible please share sample data and will assest you. Thanks and have a great day!

Hi,

The way total calculation works is a bit peculiar. I recommend reading this article to understand what is happening here: https://www.sqlbi.com/articles/summing-values-for-the-total/

You can circumvent this behaviour by for example using this kind of pattern: IF(SELECTEDVALUE(data[Date])=BLANK(),
CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(data[Wrap-up]),DATESINPERIOD(data[Date],MAX(data[Date]),-2,DAY)),

SUMX(

VALUES(data[Date]),

CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(data[Wrap-up]),DATESINPERIOD(data[Date],MAX(data[Date]),-2,DAY))

)

I hope this post helps to solve your issue and if it does consider accepting it as a solution and giving the post a thumbs up!
