Hi, @Anonymous 

Please correct me if I wrongly understand your question.

Please try the below measure.

 

sum of distinct points =
VAR groupnewtablesum =
GROUPBY (
'Table',
'Table'[Points],
"@distinctvalue", COUNTAX ( CURRENTGROUP (), 'Table'[Transaction_Id] )
)
RETURN
SUMX ( groupnewtablesum, 'Table'[Points] )
