Using Sum function and/or field in table

I am having this issue with inventory quantity in our Inventory Transactions table.

 

I created a simple Sum function to show the qty. 

Measure.Qty = SUM(InventTrans[Qty])
 
To compare I inserted the field from the same table
 
The correct value is 1300 but in the measure I get 2600. Why am I getting the duplicated value?

Its all coming from one table so there is no relationship issue. any idea?

Hi, @AA622 

1. Did you check for duplicated values in your table? If not you might want to check it. 
2. You can try a card visual to see your result properly instead of a table visual. In the table, visual data gets filtered
If you want to sum distinct values only. You might want to use distinct function with SUMX
