Multiplication result in LOD is wrong

I am trying to do a LoD Calculation in Power BI - but it doesn't work like it does in Tableau and I cant figure out what I am doing wrong.

 

Calculations I am using in Tableau Listed Below

Days = ABS([Line Date] - [Invoice Date])

All Sales = [Sales]+[Sales1]

Multiplication = { FIXED [Document Number]:
SUM([All Sales]*[Days])}

Power BI Formulas I have.

 
Days = ABS(DATEDIFF(Sheet1[Line Date],Sheet1[Invoice Date],DAY))
All Sales = SUM(Sheet1[Sales])+SUM(Sheet1[Sales1])
Multiplication (the value is wrong )
CALCULATE(
    [All Sales]* SUM(Sheet1[Days]),
    ALL(Sheet1[Document Number])
)

I'm attaching the sample file here both tableau and Power BI for reference

Thanks in advance

Hi, @asdf1608 

 

You can try the following methods.

Measure = CALCULATE(SUMX(Sheet1, [All Sales] * [Days]))

Is this the result you expect?
