SUMX not totaling correctly! PLEASE HELP

[HALEYSTODDARD]

HELP!

My Measure = 

= SUMX(

    VALUES(Dates[Month]),  

    IF(

        NOT(ISBLANK([Total Hours Worked])),  

        DISTINCTCOUNTNOBLANK(Logics[BBS]),

        0

    )

)

It works by month but the total is still wrong. I need the total to only show 32.

Hi @HALEYSTODDARD ,

You need to change your DAX so that the total row is calculated correctly. This usually involves detecting if the context is at the total level and then using a different calculation.

My Measure =
IF(
HASONEVALUE(Dates[Month]),
IF(
NOT(ISBLANK([Total Hours Worked])),
DISTINCTCOUNTNOBLANK(Logics[BBS]),
0
),
DISTINCTCOUNTNOBLANK(Logics[BBS])
)

Hello @HALEYSTODDARD ,

You need to modify your dax a bit to solve this issue :

My Measure =
SUMX(
VALUES(Dates[Month]),
VAR _HoursWorked = [Total Hours Worked]
RETURN
IF(
NOT(ISBLANK(_HoursWorked)),
DISTINCTCOUNTNOBLANK(Logics[BBS]),
0
)
)

Alternatively you can try forcing explicit aggregation if above is not working :

My Measure =
SUMX(
SUMMARIZE(
Dates,
Dates[Month],
"@DistinctCount", DISTINCTCOUNTNOBLANK(Logics[BBS])
),
[@DistinctCount]
)

I hope this helps.

Did I answer your query ? Mark this as solution if this helps, Kudos are appreciated.

Warm Regards,

Hi @HALEYSTODDARD ,

You can create a new measure as below based on the existing [BBS Rate], then put this new measure onto the visual to replace the measure [BS Rate]:

BBS Rate =
IF (
    NOT ( ISBLANK ( [Total Hours Worked] ) ),
    DISTINCTCOUNTNOBLANK ( Logics[BBS] ),
    0
)

New measure = SUMX ( VALUES ( Dates[Month] ), [BBS Rate] )

Hi,

I am not sure how your semantic model looks like, but please try something like below whether it works.

My Measure =
SUMX (
    VALUES ( Dates[Month] ),
    CALCULATE (
        IF (
            NOT ( ISBLANK ( [Total Hours Worked] ) ),
            DISTINCTCOUNTNOBLANK ( Logics[BBS] ),
            0
        )
    )
)
