Measured Total Sum Not Filtered Correctly

[Syndicate_Admin]

I have the total of an average with its totals, when I make a filter the total sum still adds the total of the measure and not the total of the filter, any idea?

Thank you.

Hi @Syndicate_Admin ,

I create a simple table as you mentioned.

Then I create a calculated column and here is the DAX code.

Sum = 'Table'[Number]*'Table'[Sale]

When I add a slicer and it will change Total.
