Get total of measured table values

I have this measure which counts to 288 on my table which is correct

 

 

311 New 0 Remain = SUMX(VALUES('Checklists'[Checklist]), IF([311 Remaining]<0,0,[311 Remaining]))

How do I return the total of that as a sum? I need that 288 number for another measure?

@ScablandKing This looks like a measure aggregation problem. See my blog article about that here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Design-Pattern-Groups-and-Super-Groups/ba-p/138149

The pattern is:
MinScoreMeasure = MINX ( SUMMARIZE ( Table, Table[Group] , "Measure",[YourMeasure] ), [Measure])
MaxScoreMeasure = MAXX ( SUMMARIZE ( Table, Table[Group] , "Measure",[YourMeasure] ), [Measure])
AvgScoreMeasure = AVERAGEX ( SUMMARIZE ( Table, Table[Group] , "Measure",[YourMeasure] ), [Measure])
etc.

@Greg_Deckler 

I can get MAXX to work but how can I sum or total this population?

Measure = MAXX(SUMMARIZE(Checklists,Checklists[Checklist],"MAX",[311 New 0 Remain]),[MAX])

 

 

SUMX DUH. It's definitely monday!!

@ScablandKing Ha! Glad you got it!
