I have a row that has the totals per Category in row 2. What I'd like is to not sum the total of row 2 because that would be way too much, but only sum one value in row 2 per Category. The granularity also needs to be kept. I pretty much need a DAX calc that will make the sum of column 2 be equal to the sum of column three by only summing one value from column 2 per Category so both grand totals for column 2 and 3 are 2500. Right now, column two will be 7500, which is over-summing.
| Category | Total | Commission |
| A | 1000 | $ 400.00 |
| A | 1000 | $ 200.00 |
| A | 1000 | $ 400.00 |
| B | 1500 | $ 500.00 |
| B | 1500 | $ 500.00 |
| B | 1500 | $ 500.00 |

Hi,
I am not sure if I understood your question correctly, but please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.
Sum Total measure: =
SUMX ( SUMMARIZE ( 'Data', 'Data'[Category], 'Data'[Total] ), 'Data'[Total] )
