How to exclude an entry from visualisation table if both fields are showing zeros

Thanks for the sample data. It makes things much easier.
Seeing the dataset, the data contains rows which, when grouped by the IDs, sum out to 0, This means that filter expressions referenced to row value <> 0 wil still return these rows (they have values but their aggregated sum is 0). Here is an example:
If you want to exclude these rows since they sum to 0, use the following measure instead to filter the visual in the filter pane (set the value to "is greater or equal to 1")
Exclude Sum to 0 rows = VAR Summ = //This creates a virtual table summarizing the measures by the IDs/fields included SUMMARIZE ( Table1, Table1[Project ID], Table1[Sub-Project ID], Table1[Chart of Accounts], Table1[Project Manager ID], Table1[Line Type], "Fixed", [Sum Fixed Costs], "Variable", [Sum Variable Cost] ) RETURN //The measure filters the virtual table to count rows containing "ACTUAL" and with summarized values which are not 0 COUNTROWS ( FILTER ( Summ, Table1[Line Type] = "ACTUAL" && OR ( [Fixed] <> 0, [Variable] <> 0 ) ) )and you will get this result

you can use the Filter Pane to set both Variable and Fixed Cost filter to NOT EQUAL BLANK one by one

Hi Fowmy , this method doesn't work as the entries are actually not null/ blank values. They are actual zeros. I also tried to apply these in filter pane if they are not zeros for both "Variable Cost" and "Fixed Cost" fields but it doesn't work in the sense that it changes the final grand total amount. By right if it works, it shouldn't change grand total amount as we are only excluding lines that are zero for both.
