Hello,
I have a table with static values.
When I try to SUM these values, my values change (below):
Is there a way I can get the total of all the values?
Thanks!

Hi @amandabus21 ,
Based on your description, I created the MEASUREMENT and put it into the table visual object, which shows the correct results.
_sum_quantity =
SUM('Table'[Quantity])
You're getting unexpected results, probably because some of the calculations are causing grouping calculations for the same values in the QUANTITY column. Alternatively, the table has a built-in aggregation function that you can use to sum directly.
If your Current Period does not refer to this, please clarify in a follow-up reply.
Best Regards,
Clara Gong
