DAX : Grand Totals Not Matching when zero or null

Hi Everyone,

 

I am bit struggling with the grand totals. Somehow the grand totals are not matching for few rows horizontally but works for others.

Below is the screenshot of the data and the dax code.

The vertical date is a posting date calendar and horizontal is the normal calendar.

The pattern where it does not work is whenever a row contains a Zero/Null value.

Dax code:

VAR prevmonth =
CALCULATE (
[M1] ,
PREVIOUSMONTH ( 'Calendar P'[P Date] )
)
RETURN
CALCULATE (
IF (
ISCROSSFILTERED ( 'Calendar P'[P D] ),
IF (
Max('C P'[P MonthKey]) <= (Max('C'[MonthKey])+100),
[M1] - prevmonth,
BLANK ()
),
CALCULATE (
[M1],
'T1'[Version] = 1
)
)
)

 

Any help is really appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

@medaxing , force total from rows

 

VAR prevmonth =
CALCULATE (
[M1] ,
PREVIOUSMONTH ( 'Calendar P'[P Date] )
)
RETURN
CALCULATE (sumx(values(Table[column]),  //Column you have used in column(pivot) of matrix
IF (
ISCROSSFILTERED ( 'Calendar P'[P D] ),
IF (
Max('C P'[P MonthKey]) <= (Max('C'[MonthKey])+100),
[M1] - prevmonth,
BLANK ()
),
CALCULATE (
[M1],
'T1'[Version] = 1
)
)))

Thanks Amit for the quick response.

No luck though.

I tried to separate the measure as well, still the same issue.
