How Formula Only Works for Parent, not Child Level?

Hi Guys,

I am pretty new to power BI and please help me for this formula. I'd like to create the formula Needed to selling to meet Target =100-parent sales, but I don't want the formula works for child level. Because our target is based on parent level. So how can I avoid the formula calculate child name. For example, the formula only show Parent A and B, not show A1,A2,B1,B2...

Thanks. 

Parent 

Child

Needed to selling to meet Target

A

A1

A2

B

=100-45

 

B1

13

 

 

B2

B3

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Based on your description, you can create a measure as follows.

Measure = 

var x1=100-CALCULATE(SUM(P_C[Sales]),ALLEXCEPT(P_C,P_C[Parent]))

return

IF(HASONEVALUE(P_C[Sales]),BLANK(),x1)
Then you can create a matrix visual.
