DAX - sum measures

Hi

 

I have a measure called Weighted Productivty. As you can see in the below screenshot. The measure is being calculated correctly. However I would like an additional column that shows the same row values, i.e 28.63,-58.42,-6.47, but sums the total as -36.27, rather than the current total of -26.68% (which is being calculated correctly).

 

How can I just use the calculated value and aggregate it in another column. Could I use a cumulative value on the measure. Any advice much appreciated.

 

Thanks

 

Andrew

    Hi Andrew,

    I've just come across your question regarding summing measures. Did you ever manage to resolve? If so I'd be very interested in understanding how as I kepp banging my head against a brick wall with this. 

    thanks

      Hi, 

      Just in case anyone views my question; I've managed to resolve the issue. I have a measure called margin variance and to get it to total for each category as opposed to just complete the variance calculation is to use:

       

      Margin Var. = SUMX(VALUES('Power BI Item Ledger Entry'[Item Number]),[Margin Var Calc.])
