Hi @amirghaderi

I found the reason for discrepancy. Although dont know how to fix it.
There is a relationship between table A and B (one to many), The value in matrix visual is from table B which has a grouping refrence to table A value. There is a value in table B which does not match in table A ( against one to many relationship). So, even the total get calculated in the bottom sum, cant show that in the matrix. not sure if it is possble to be shown with Blank grouping.

Hi @amirghaderi ,
This should not be possible, Can you possibly send the file or recreate the issue in a sample file?
