I need to Sum up a measure

I have a measure I created to get me a single value for each date. The code below allows me to take a value once since there are usually 3 records with the same MtdActual(this is because there are 3 shifts). 

 

My issue comes in the matrix visual that I am using this measure in. It works great for the subtotal of each product but the grand total is not calculated correctly  (Shown in the image at the bottom)

 

What I need to do now is get a sum of the measure but IM not sure how to do it

 

Heres My Measure that I would Like to Sum:

MaxMTDMaterialUnits =
MAXX(
KEEPFILTERS(VALUES(V_PBI_Daily_Attainment[Date])),
CALCULATE((MAX(V_PBI_Daily_Attainment[MtdActual]))))
 
 
As you see below my Grand total for the MTD Units is incorrect, but all my subtotals are good.

Try: 

Totals for MaxMTDMaterialUnits = 
SUMX( table [Material], [MaxMTDMaterialUnits])
