Am trying to calculate delta value by subtracting Column 2 from column 1, but when column 1 and column 2 are same then getting wrong value. Can anyone help me?

Delta = Sum(column1) - Sum(Column 2)

-496889-496889.080.08
-64638-64637.5-0.5
-1192415-1192414.73-0.27
-316035-316035.220.22

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Create a calculated column:

 

Column = 'Table (2)'[Column 1]-'Table (2)'[Column 2]
