TIA

To get around this issue you can create a new measure which has a custom logic for totals.

Hi @Anjali_mm
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!!
