Help With a Sumx Measure

Morning

I am working with a single table that has 'enrollment' numbers that I would like to sum up.  The trick is, each each territory/program has a distinct enrollment number.  I cannot simply sum up the enrollment column for the table has duplicate territory/program combinations.

I was trying to use the DAX formula 'Enrollment=sumx(Enrollment_tbl,enrollment).  This did not work as I expected.

 

I am attaching an image of data from an excel spreadsheet to better demonstrate what I am trying to achieve in BI.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @IamTDR ,

 

Take a try of this :

Measure = SUMX(GROUPBY('BI BookInUse',[Program],[Territory],''BI BookInUse''[Enrollment]),[Enrollment])

Hi @IamTDR 

The below should work for you.

 

Enrollment Measure = 
SUMX(
    GROUPBY( Enrollment_tbl, Enrollment_tbl[Territory], Enrollment_tbl[ProgCode] ),
    [Enrollment]
)

@IamTDR try following 

 

Sum Enrollment = 
SUMX(
SUMMARIZECOLUMNS( Table[Territory], Table[ProgCode]),
CALCULATE( SUM( Table[Enrollment] ) )
)

Thanks for the suggestions but so far I am not receiving the desired results.  I inserted an image of what my visual currently looks like.  The Total Enrollment number should total to 12,144 and not 60,720.  My Total Enrollment number is based on Territory and Program.
