    ianwuk,

    You can go to Format pane of your table, and there should be an option for grand total that you can turn it off to remove Total. As for displays 0, you can write the following:

    Sales Total = 

    VAR temp = SUMX(Sales, Sales[Hat] + Sales[Scarf] + Sales[Gloves])

    RETURN IF(temp = BLANK(), 0, temp)

Hi,

 

Your data is not well structures.  It should ideally be a 3 column dataset - Name, Item and Value.  The item column should have Gloves, Scarfs and Hats.  To do so, in the Query Editor window, right click on the first column and select "Unpivot other columns".  Click on Close and Load.  Now build your visual.
