Column level totals for multiple values in each row

Hi,

 

I am using a matrix to display some data.

I have one column for months, rows for parent category and sub category and values for quantity of item, price of item and a measure for sum(quantity) * sum(price per item).

Above is what it looks like without the measure column.

Below is with measure, the measure however for totals shows the wrong value. Is there an easy way of creating a total for each month in the matrix itself.

Thanks,

Try this:

 

IF(ISFILTERED('Table'[Parent Category Name]) , [Qty]*[Price per Item] , SUMX('Table', [Qty]*[Price per Item] ))

Thanks CoreyP but unfortunately I can't get that working.

The Table structure the matrix uses is as follows;

 

Category

IdNameParentCategoryName (Self Referencing to Category Id)

 

Product

IdCategory IdNamePrice Per Item

 

Amount

IdProduct IdDate Wanted (Month)Quantity

 

Thanks

Yeah, you'd just need to edit it with your specific table names.. so something more like this:

 

IF( ISFILTERED('Category'[ParentCategoryName]), SUM('Amount'[Quantity]) * SUM('Product'[Price Per Item]) , SUMX('Category' , SUM('Amount'[Quantity]) * SUM('Product'[Price Per Item]) )

 

This is basically saying, if the measure is in the context of a parent category name, do one operation, and when it's outside of that context, aka the total line, do a sum of the measure.
