Data changes in power BI visualization after adding new field in Grouped Rows
Hello,
Whenever I am adding new field in Group By section, the visualization (chart is showing differences in data). In the table after Grouping data (Total value) is same but the formula is not calculating in right way. I found couple of forums where user reports incorrect totals is recurring problem in Power BI. Any idea why this is happening ?

Hi Anonymous ,
I can't reproduce your scenario. Could you share me a sample .pbix file for test? Please don't contain any sensitive information.
Or, just modify the .pbix file I provided.
Best Regards,
