Hello,
I get, I don't think so complicated problem, just not solved.
Goal: I want to calculate the total stockvalue of a warehouse.
I have the following data available:
table: article
field: articlecode
table: stock
field: quantity
table: purchase
field: purchaesprice
By multiplying quantity x purchaseprice I get the stock value per item (articlecode). I get the total stock value by adding up all the lines per item.
The result I now get in the PowerBi report is as follows:
Articlecode | Quantity | Purchaseprice | Stockvalue |
A123 | 25 | 125,00 | 3.125,00 |
B123 | 10 | 90,00 | 900,00 |
C123 | 9 | 275,00 | 2.475,00 |
Total | 44 | 490,00 | 21.560,00 |
Correct | 6.500,00 |
So it's totally wrong. The Total is also the multiplication of the totals of quantity and purchase price. It should be as mentioned by Correct.
I think it has to do with Sum and Sumx, but I'm not sure what to do.
Please advice.

Hi
Create 2 measures as below.
1. Stock Value1 = sum(Stock[Quantity])*sum(Stock[PurchasePrice])
2. Stock Value = sumx(SUMMARIZE(Stock,Stock[ArticleCode],Stock[Quantity],Stock[PurchasePrice]), [Stock Value1])
Please confirm if the solution works..!!
Hi @Laska
Try this:
Stock Value =
VAR _A =
ADDCOLUMNS(
stock,
"Stockvalue", SUM( stock[quantity] ) * SUM( purchase[purchaesprice] )
)
RETURN
SUMX( _A, [Stockvalue] )
