How do i take the Sum of a Calculated Measure

Hello -

I have a Measure that is calculating the number of staff required  based on call volumes and length of calls and am looking to aggregate that measure as a total for the day and eventually week.

 

My measure currently shows the daily staff required for the day's average by hour instead of the total for the day . Is there a way to take the sum of this measure? 2+7+11+12+12+11+13+13+12+10 = 93 required instead of 11

In the above example i just need the bottom row to show the total for the day similar to how the # of calls is displayed.

@Anonymous , Try measure like

 


sumx(values(Table[Hour]),[Required])

 

or

 

sumx(summarize(Table[Hour], "_1",[Required]),[_1])
