What if parameter in DAX

Dear All,
i want my "what if parameter" to affect only certain row in table - if the condidion is met (screen below), for example:


when i will hard code value of 20 inside DAX calculation it's working fine - there is 50 bikes in last column, but when im changing it to Extra bikes parameter value - nothing is happening, it doesn't see param value ....what am i doing wrong here ?

HI @BarSi1986 

 

Try this measure:

Measure = 
Var _A =[Extra bikes Value]
return
if(max(Items[Item])="bikes",sum(Items[Quantity])-'Extra bikes'[Extra bikes Value],sum(Items[Quantity]))

 

Output:

Well, it fixed problem on row level here, but still doesn't affect TOTAL - we have 10+20 items, and the total of column is still 50, any ideas ? cause im still new in DAX 😞
