Issue with column totals

I am using a single table which I am fetching from SQL via direct query. There are 4 columns and a date. I just want to add a total of 4 columns. See below image. When I click on "Don't summarize", it is showing the values correctly. See the next image.

When I click on the sum, it is giving the wrong totals.

Is this an issue with power bi?

Hi Kolumam,

This might be related to duplicated value in your table, if you data sample like below

You could see that I set don't summarize, it will show distinct value of "a" in table, if you have a unique value as key  like  "sid", then when you insert this in table visual, it will show all data instead of distinct value (when you click don't summarize). So you total is correct, you could check whether you have duplicated value of each date.
