Creating a forecast based on previous weekday averages: Total in table not Showing

Hi PBI Community, 

 

I am hoping someone will be able to help me with the below issue. 

 

I am currently trying to make a formula which uses actuals up to today(), and then predict the rest of the month, however giving each weekday a specific forecast value. This forecast value will be specific to the weekday, averaging over the last 31 days. 

 

The issue I'm running into, is that my actuals are included within the total, but my forecast figures are not. 

 

I have tried both this approach using DAX, as well as creating calculated tables/ columns and have had no luck so far. 

 

Any tips would be appreciated 😊

 

Best, 

 

Joel
