    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
