    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)

Dear Community, I think the solutions to this question have been specific to the question. What I am struggling to solve as a beginner is that what if there are many more rows in your dataset unlike 3 which you can manually make a formula out of. 

 

Could someone please tell me if there is a way to calculate totals/averages/etc for 'n' columns in Power BI horizontally? Just like the sum function works in Excel over the whole row operating on every column in the ROW. 

Appreciate the help. Thank you
