Hello!

I have this graphic for annual demand:

When I'm trying to do the exact same thing for annual offer, instead to appear annual offer at the Values section, it appear Count of annual offer. How can I solve this?

Either you can click on the small down arrow Count of Annual Offer field and choose SUM or better create a new Measure as follows and add it.

Total Offers = SUM ( Tablename[Annual Offer])

I tried to choose SUM, but I don't have the possibility:

HI @Anonymous,

Have you checked the 'data category' and 'summarize' options of your column settings? If they are set to specific data types or 'do not summarize', their value will be processed as text values and disabled math aggregation functions.

When you right click on the Table on the Right fields section, you see an option as New Measure

By the way, make sure, the Annual Offer column has all numbers and no text.
