Experts,
I need some help to understand why my column total (from measures) is wrong ?
TIA
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi,
By default the total calculation applies your measure logic to itself. It seems you are using RANKX here?
To get around this issue you can create a new measure which has a custom logic for totals.

Hi @Anonymous
There are 2 watys to correct total value:
1- Create a rank as a calculated column not a measure
2- Use if and add different formula for total (same as @ValtteriN solution)
If this post helps, please consider accepting it as the solution to help the other members find it more quickly.
Appreciate your Kudos!!
