Displaying Average instead of Sum

Hello community,

 

I am working on a Matrix where I want to see the sum of a measure I created called "Average Sales Price"

 

Right now it's just displaying the average of everything. I want to see the overall sum of the average sales price of all of these parts for each section, and the sum of the overall average sales price of the sections for each sytem (name of which I blacked out for privacy purposes).

 

When I go to my average sales price value it does not give me an option to summarize

Any advice on how to achieve this, or if it's achievable at all would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

      Bumping this because I am still having this issue. I attempted this solution, but the totals for the section don't look like they're adding up correctly? Please any help here would be appreciated. I included the measure I createad to show.

        Hi, Anonymous 

        You just put the Avg metric into SUMX, and that's it

        Sum of Avg Sales Price = SUMX('Table', [Average Sales Price])

        Here's a comparison, you can take a closer look at what's the difference, the total is aggregated, but it's still the average between them.

    Hi, Anonymous 
    Based on your information, I create a table:

     

    Maybe you can create a measure to calculate total value:

    Sum of Avg Sales Price = SUMX('Table', [Average Sales Price])

    Then put it in Value, here is my preview:
