Filtering SUM Value Based on Another Measure
Hi TamlerlovesKant ,
12605 is 2521*5, that is, the total of AVG Plant Cost per Day is multiplied by the total of Assigned Equipment Days.
You can create a new measure to get the results you want.
Measure = SUMX('Equipment List',[Plant Assigned Cost])Best Regards,

Hi lbendlin,
Thanks for getting in touch on this one; i have created a simplified and Sanitised Data model which can be viewed below:
https://1drv.ms/u/s!Aqcds9Zosni5iG0KXKTyExJSeeaD?e=mds6P7
The outcome i would like to achieve is
AVG plant cost per day * Assigned equipment days;
wherein apply the average daily cost of a piece of equipment (which is referencing the Invoices Column) and apply that value average value to a project whenever the piece of equipment is assigned to the project (using the day diary)
as you can see in the image below, it appears to be filtering and applying the values correct, but the total value for "Plant assigned cost" doesnt seem to add up properly;
the cost that i want applied to the project is 1502.67+641.33+1449.00 = $3593.00 but instead the total is $12605.00 and i cant figure out why?
