How to only sum up part of a matrix

[ThomasWeppler]

Hi Power BI community
I have two tabels.

A tabel with all my Main projects (1)

And a tabel with Main projects (1), sub projects (2) and connected projects (3)
These two tabels are liked together so all projects, sub projects and connected projects can be show as just projects when I drill up.

However as I drill down in the matrix I need to write some DAX that allows me to see Main projects and subprojects as one  and to see each other projects for themselves. However this must not change the results I see when I drill all the way up and only see the summarized main project.

I hope this make sense and all help is truely appreciated.

@ ended up adding this colum to the second tabel.

opg. =

var _toproject = IF(Assignment[sub projects] = "To project", 1,0)

return

IF(_toproject = 1,

LOOKUPVALUE('Project'[Main projects], 'Project'[Main projects], Assignment[Main projects]), Assignment[Main projects])

Sometimes the simplest way is the best way and a fairly simple if function did the trick.

Hi @ThomasWeppler ,

I'm not clear about your requirement. Could you please provide some raw data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples? By the way, is there any relationship between these two tables(include Main projects (1), sub projects (2) and connected projects (3))? If yes, please provide the related info. It would be helpful to find out the solution. You can refer the following links to share the required info:

And It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community. Thank you.
