Incorrect Row Totals for Measure in Matrix table

We getting incorrect row totals in a table where he have created which uses a measure. A percentage calculation is also needed which uses this field, and so even though the overall values are correct, the total percentage of all values in the table will not be 100% and is skewing calculation
 my issue was the row total of the MeasureFTE is incorrect, where he have coloured this font in Red on the GM.Input page. I created MeasureRT to give a decimal value for each team/objective value in the matrix which are also coloured red. The values for the measure are correct, as they should be all total 1 for each team.
 
MeasureFTE then multiplies MeasureRT by the number of members of each team to try and give an estimation for how much work has been done on an objective based on it’s occupation of the team and how many members they have i.e. in a team of 6 people, a piece of work which took 0.5 or 50% of their time would have a value of 3 in MeasureFTE.

However, the row totals here are not calculating correctly, leading to the graph on the next page using incorrect percentages of the total.

Hi @Durga1 ,

 

It should be a context issue,refer to below links:

It might be a row context issue, you might have change like

measure new = SUMX(SUMMARIZE(Table,Table[Team],"_u",[Measure]),[_u])

Or

measure new = AVERAGRE(SUMMARIZE(Table,Table[Team],"_u",[Measure]),[_u])
