    Hi Anonymous 

     

    I think it may be the position of your NOT function which is causing the problem.
    Try this instead (not tested):

    Volume =
    CALCULATE(
        DISTINCTCOUNT( 'Orders'[Volume_Cal] ),
        FILTER(
            'Orders',
            'Orders'[PROCESS] IN { "Posted", "Credit", "Open Items" }
                && (
                    'Orders'[DOCUMENTTYPE] = "AB"
                        || (
                            NOT ( TRIM( 'Orders'[DOCUMENTSTATUS] ) IN { "Ready Validation", "Not MVI" } )
                                || ISBLANK( TRIM( 'Orders'[DOCUMENTSTATUS] ) )
                        )
                            && 'Orders'[Open Status] = "In Process"
                )
        )
    )

     

    Best regards,

    I doubt the position of not, check and  try

    Volume = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Orders'[Volume_Cal])
    ,FILTER('Orders',
    		'Orders'[PROCESS] in {"Posted","Credit", "Open Items"} 
    			&& ('Orders'[DOCUMENTTYPE] = "AB" 
    			|| (NOT(TRIM(('Orders'[DOCUMENTSTATUS])) in {"Ready Validation", "Not MVI"} )
    			|| ISBLANK(TRIM('Orders'[DOCUMENTSTATUS]))) 
    			&& 'Orders'[Open Status] ="In Process")))
