Got your message. Thanks. FYI that your model has a lot of bidirectional relationships and some many:many relationships. That complicates the DAX in your measures. Simple model, simple DAX. I encourage you to simplify your model, if you plan to do further analyses. In any case, here is a measure that gets your desired results.
SALES DIFF PER WEEK = VAR __thisbrand = [SALES PER WEEK] VAR __otherbrands = SUMX(EXCEPT ( ALL ( productmaster[BRAND] ), VALUES(productmaster[BRAND]) ), [SALES PER WEEK]) RETURN __otherbrands - __thisbrandIf this works for you, please mark it as the solution. Kudos are appreciated too. Please let me know if not.
