Hi @FZOU ,

 

I'm assuming that you have several lines with 3 years, 4 years and so on correct?

 

So when you do a SUM you are getting the sum of all those lines and then multiplying that by 12.

 

Looking at the numbers I think you have 15.552 lines with the value 3.

 

Try the following code:

AgeMonth= SELECTEDVALUE(DemandsMontlhy[AgeYear])*12

Regards

Miguel Félix
