Calculated column incorrect calculation

Well I am confused!

 

I have 2 tables, there is a relationship between Project IDs so no problem showing graphics with data between both tables. However I am trying to add Actual Cost from one table to Remaining Cost from another table and the answer it gives me is wrong, am I missing something here? (calculated column is "AFC"

 

 

 

 

 I have a report level filter where I choose the project and it updates all the table just fine, but the AFC value in here isnt right?

 

Any help really appreciated I am new to DAX :-)

 

  • Just got to the bottom of it, I changed it to a measure rather than a calculated column and moved the measure to a different table, not sure how it fixed things but it did! Need to spend a little more time learning how these things work!

     

    Thank you for your help it got me thinking about things more from your questions and helped to get the answer :-)

      Hi

       

      So I use a slicer on "Project Name" which filters everything in the report at once, "Project Name" is in a third table called "PROJECTS", this projects table shares the same relationship "Project Ref" as the other tables so everything else filters ok it seems

       

      Each visualization has its own Visual level filters which are just the ones automatically applied when I add a field to the visualization
