Hello. I am fairly new to PowerBI. I am trying to build a matrix that has a subtotal where it only adds when "Weekday" is Monday through Friday. I already have subtotals which adds up all the days, but I just need to add Monday through Friday. Would I need a new measure and if so, how would I go about getting this customized subtotal? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!
WHAT I HAVE NOW:
WANT:
@Greg_Deckler This is my data. I want to ultimately only add Monday through Friday and also have another total for Monday through Saturday. Is this possible?

Hello, it is not possible to make a 2nd total in powerbi tables , instead you can make this calculation with measure and show it in a different table.
@cson123 First, please vote for this idea: https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Fabric-Ideas/Matrix-Table-grand-totals-with-Measures/idi-p...
