Calculated column for weighted average does not work for few rows

I had created a calculated column for total weight calculation which was (days difference* payment recieved). This calculated column works fine for few rows fetching the correct value on multiplication but few rows the multiplication values do not match. let me share the screenshot for it:

 

The calculated column is ,

Weight = RECEIVABLES[Days Diff]*RECEIVABLES[PAYMENT_AMOUNT]
 
Since it did not fetch the value I needed I created a new measure
Weight(measure)= CALCULATE(SUMX(RECEIVABLES,RECEIVABLES[Days Diff]*VALUE(sum(RECEIVABLES[PAYMENT_AMOUNT]))))
 
Though the measure works well but then the issue is that the total is not correct.
I need the total weight for another measure to fetch  me the weighted average days.

    Hi Avivek ,

     

    You may create a new measure like DAX below to get the correct total.

     

    Weight(measure)_New=

var _table = SUMMARIZE(RECEIVABLES, RECEIVABLES[Month & Year],"_Value", [Weight(measure)] )

return
IF(HASONEVALUE(RECEIVABLES[Month & Year]), [Weight(measure)], SUMX(_table,[_Value]))

     

    Best Regards,

    Amy
