Hello Anonymous , your requirement is not clear but still if you create All and ALLSELECTED for the table in a measure instead of a column you will get your required output. 

 

Instead of 

FTEs total allselected =
CALCULATE(SUM('Dayforce'[FTEs]), ALLSELECTED('Dayforce'[DataDate]))
use
FTEs total allselected =
CALCULATE(SUM('Dayforce'[FTEs]), ALLSELECTED('Dayforce'))

    Thank you Kishore_KVN , but I get the same result when I make that change.  It just returns the filtered value of FTEs for the location, not the column total.  What I am trying to get is the 4078 figure in each row.

      Hello Anonymous , using all and all selected will give the total by remove all the external filters on that calculation. Can you please refer below screenshot for your reference. 

      If possible please share sample pbix will try to provide maximum help.

        Thanks for staying with me here!  I can't send my original PBIX file, but I wonder if my issue is that I have multiple connnected datasets and this table is referencing a location column from another table that is linked by relationship to the employee table.
