@Anonymous You can't return text in a column total. Best thing you could do would be to use Card visuals with a measure, but to answer that question would need to understand your source data.
Sorry, having trouble following, can you post sample data as text and expected output?
Not really enough information to go on, please first check if your issue is a common issue listed here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Before-You-Post-Read-This/ba-p/1116882
Also, please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490
The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.

@Anonymous OK, see PBIX attached below signature. The basic measure is:
Total = "Wins - " & SUM('sample'[WIGS_Wins_Achieved])+0 & ", Target - " & SUM('sample'[WIGS_Target])+0 & ", " & FORMAT([%]+0, "0.00") & "%"
@Greg_Deckler Thank you so much for this. Can we also show the AMs count with the wins, target and percentage?
@Anonymous I don't see why not. Updated PBIX below that also shows this in a matrix visual.
Total = "Wins - " & SUM('sample'[WIGS_Wins_Achieved])+0 & ", Target - " & SUM('sample'[WIGS_Target])+0 & ", " & FORMAT([%]+0, "0.00") & "%, AMS - " & [ams]
@Greg_Deckler in the sample pbix file, the first table has total right. Can we have this measure which looks like the row subtotals? so that even if we expand the hierarchy, the new measure which represents the total should also be placed accordingly like this:
Is this possible?
@Anonymous I don't understand what you are saying.
.
@Anonymous I don't see it happening or if it is possible it is going to be incredibly ugly to code. Basically what you are asking for is akin to a Custom Matrix Hierarchy except instead of the hierarchy being for columns, you need it for rows. Knock yourself out with this method if you can swing it: (3) The New Hotness (Custom Matrix Hierarchy) - Microsoft Power BI Community
@Anonymous Sorry, not an easy solve.
