Incorrect Total

[Anonymous]

Hi,  This DAX is producing the correct values for 4 Months individually but the incorrect value for the total.

Ans =

VAR ActDays = MAXX ('Plan', [Day_Cnt]) - MAXX ('Plan', [Rem_Cnt])

VAR RemDays = MAXX ('Plan', [Rem_Cnt])

VAR Result = CALCULATE (

    SUMX ('Details', DIVIDE ([MyValue], ActDays) * RemDays),
   MyDim[DimValue] <> "Do not want this"

    )
I am seeing this:

YearMonth	ActDays	RemDays	MyValue	Act
Jan 2024	23	0	1,8296,52	0
Feb 2024	21	0	1,924,597	0
Mar 2024	21	0	1,867,865	0
Apr 2024	9	13	2,067,381	1,221,633
Total	10	13	8,410,212	6,467,862

I need Total Act to be 1,221,633

I created the multiplication at a column level and a measure to add it up.  That solved it.  However, I do like these ideas and I will try them.
Thank you for the answers.

This looks like a measure totals problem. Very common. See my post about it here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/DAX-Commands-and-Tips/Dealing-with-Measure-Totals/td-p/63376

Hi @Anonymous 
Please try

Ans =
SUMX (
    VALUES ( 'Table'[YearMonth] ),
    CALCULATE (
        VAR RemDays =
            MAXX ( 'Plan', [Rem_Cnt] )
        VAR ActDays =
            MAXX ( 'Plan', [Day_Cnt] ) - RemDays
        VAR Result =
            CALCULATE (
                SUMX ( 'Details', DIVIDE ( [MyValue], ActDays ) * RemDays ),
                MyDim[DimValue] <> "Do not want this"
            )
        RETURN
            Result
    )
)
