TOTAL VALUE CALCULATION - WRONG

Dear colleagues,

 

I have a problem with de total value. The column "Primeiros Caracteres" is from a dimension table and the other colums below are measures related to this table. My problem is on last column (CountTipodeCriterioAlterado) that is calculating very well (1 to Items that changed from EX to PQ or from PQ to EX and 0 to same Crtiério (PQ to PQ and EX to EX). But i need to get the sum of this number (All Items that had chaged), but the total shows 0, not the sum.

 

The formulas are below:

 

CountTipodeCritérioAlterado =
IF([TipoCritériodCicloAtual]= "PQ" && [TipoCritériodCicloAnterior]="EX" ,1,
IF([TipoCritériodCicloAtual]=BLANK(),0,
IF([TipoCritériodCicloAnterior]=BLANK(),0,
IF([TipoCritériodCicloAtual]= "EX" && [TipoCritériodCicloAnterior]="EX" ,0,
IF([TipoCritériodCicloAtual]= "PQ" && [TipoCritériodCicloAnterior]="PQ" ,0)))))

Hi @luizahenriques 

please try

CountTipodeCritérioAlterado =
SUMX (
    VALUES ( 'Table'[Premeirios caracteres] ),
    VAR Actual = [TipoCritériodCicloAtual]
    VAR Anterior = [TipoCritériodCicloAnterior]
    RETURN
        IF (
            Actual = "PQ"
                && Anterior = "EX",
            1,
            IF (
                Actual = BLANK (),
                0,
                IF (
                    Anterior = BLANK (),
                    0,
                    IF (
                        Actual = "EX"
                            && Anterior = "EX",
                        0,
                        IF ( Actual = "PQ" && Anterior = "PQ", 0 )
                    )
                )
            )
        )
)
