Grand Total is not correct

Hello,

 

I have this table:

JMikes_1-1686939614532.png

As you can see, the grand total is not correct.

Here is the measure:

AnticipatedAdditionalPmnts = if([CYTotalGrossRevenue] * [PY%Pd] - [CYTotalPd]< 0 , 0, [CYTotalGrossRevenue] * [PY%Pd] - [CYTotalPd] )
 
Even if I can't get the grand total correct in the column, is there a way to capture the correct total in a measure?

Thank you so much @VahidDM . This sounds like it will work if I can figure out how to write the SUMMARIZE part of the measure.

 

The if statement uses measures, so I'm not sure what table and column I should use in the SUMMARIZE function. Again, here is my measure:

AnticipatedAdditionalPmnts = if([CYTotalGrossRevenue] * [PY%Pd] - [CYTotalPd]< 0 , 0, [CYTotalGrossRevenue] * [PY%Pd] - [CYTotalPd] )

@VahidDM , I tried this but it won't display the table now:

Hi @Anonymous 

 

In SUMX add only "[CYTotalGrossRevenue] * [PY%Pd] - [CYTotalPd]" then filter those less than 0.
