Incorrect total when multiplying columns

I've created a table where I show data from two tables.

Table 1: Name and price.

Table 2: Quantities.

So I'm left with a view: Name, quantities, price.

I have generated a new column that multiplies the quantities by the price using: Total = SUM('ps_product'[price])*SUM('ps_stock_available'[quantity])

I do well the multiplication, but in the total of the column I see an amount that has nothing to do with it. LLevo days going around, looking for forums and I can't find how to solve it. Can anyone help me? I've tried both SUM and SUMX

  • Hi Syndicate_Admin ,

    This formula using sumx and related should solve your problem.
    I have 2 tables. One with Price, second with Quantiy.

     


    Take a look and let me know if it helped!

      Thanks Migasuke,
      you have solved my issue I have spent half day trying to fix and googled myself to death, almost giving up.
      My issue was a standard multiplication of Kilometers x emission factor = carbon created,
      whereby the results was double the amount it should have been.
      Your solution with SUMX & RELATED has fixed it.
      LEGEND! Thanks again.
