I have a parent-child tables set up using this relationship, where the child table is missing a few records, but the parent is not missing any. CRM = parent, CPQ = child.
In a table visual, I'm not able to show SUM( CRM[Esimated Value] ) for all rows as you can see below. Even though CRM[Estimated Value] is not missing any values, it is showing blank if the child record is blank:
How can I obtain the result below? Although it is possible to join them in Power Query, which is how I got the result below for demonstration, I prefer not to do so.
In addition to the problem above of the blank [CRM Value] values, I also don't understand why the table display changes when the column are in a different order.
When CRM.Quote Number is the first column, then the layout is like this:
But when CPQ.Quote number is the first column, then the blanks disappear:
Solved! Go to Solution.
Remove Quote Number CPQ from the visual.
Or use a CALCULATE function to get it back.
Here is some background on why this is happening.

When filtering direction is single from CRM->CPQ, then 'show items with no data' has no visual effect.
Remove Quote Number CPQ from the visual.
Or use a CALCULATE function to get it back.

change the filter direction to single, from CRM to CPQ. Show the code for the "CRM Value" measure.
