expected result measure only item: = 
VAR _categorycount =
    COUNTROWS ( ALLSELECTED ( Data[Category] ) )
VAR _currentcategory =
    VALUES( Data[Category] )
VAR _currentitem =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( Data[Item] )
VAR _t =
    ADDCOLUMNS (
        ALLSELECTED ( Data ),
        "@count", COUNTROWS ( FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( Data ), Data[Item] = _currentitem ) )
    )
RETURN
    SUMX (
        FILTER (
            _t,
            Data[Category] in _currentcategory
                && Data[Item] = _currentitem
                && [@count] = _categorycount
        ),

Hi Jiwan Kim
you understood my point very clearly and it is working now

Thanks for your support

adding to that is it possible to get the item name seperately whithc distinct without package name

Only common item name (distinct) should show whenever selectes the packes in the slicer

thanks
