How to ccalculate total

Hi,

 

Thank you for all the support.

 

I also need a function that will create a column named "Total after the column named "Manager" and add the total for all the categories of employees:

Hi @Junkay 

 

@Ahmedx Good share!

 

You can't find column total because you're not using Matrix Visual.

And you can try to use Table Visual to create a calculated column or measure:

 

Create a calculated, add up the columns you need.

total = [direct contract] + [graduate trainee] + [junior] + [senior] + [manager]

 

 

Create a measure, use the SUMX function for calculations.

Measure = SUMX('Table', [direct contract] + [graduate trainee] +[junior] + [senior] + [manager])

I could only see the row total, no column total on the version I'm using

can you show me what your table looks like? I think it’s better for you to create a measure instead of implicit measures
