Aggregation issue

I have an issue with the following table I created in Power BI.
Why is the sum of Outer Square only calculated per Variant Code and not among all entries?

Ok, this simple measure did work:

 

AQMtotal = 'Production Order'[Quantity]*RELATED('Production BOM Header'[Outer Square])

Hi @Anonymous

If only the total sum is incorrect, other values in the [Outer Square] column is right, you could write a measure for a temparay solution.

Measure = IF(HASONEVALUE('value'[entry no]),MAX([outer square]),SUMX(ALL('value'),[outer square]))

To find why cause this problem, please provide detailed information, so i can reproduce your problem.

which table do the columns [entry no], [variant code], [outer square] from?

which are the key columns(create relationship based on) among three tables?

 

Best Regards

I didn't get it with a measure - but I can provide my pbix:

The issue is about the table on the bottom right side. 
I added the quantity, so I don't have to many entries per variant code.

That depends on whether Outer Square is a column or a measure. If it is a measure, see my post about it here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/DAX-Commands-and-Tips/Dealing-with-Measure-Totals/td-p/63376

I didn't work with measures yet. In this case it's just two tables connected through a third table:
