Issues with SumX Function -- Table Totals Incorrect
powerbinovice01 Nope, you have to SUMMARIZE the Weekly Sales table exactly as how it is summarized in your table visual and then do a SUMX across that table. First, please vote for this idea: https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=082203f1-594f-4ba7-ac87-bb91096c742e
This looks like a measure totals problem. Very common. See my post about it here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/DAX-Commands-and-Tips/Dealing-with-Measure-Totals/td-p/63376
Also, this Quick Measure, Measure Totals, The Final Word should get you what you need:

Hello Greg,
Thank you for your quick response. I can't believe I watched one of your videos earlier and you are the one to help me with a solution!
Real qucik for clarification purposes, my weekly sales are currently summarized. Are you suggesting I create a new measure, something like Weekly Sales= (SumX('Weekly Sales' [Weekly Sales])
Then proceed and create a new formula for my Difference between Current Week and Prior Week something along the lines of Diff TW and LW = SumX('Weekly Sales',
IF(ISBLANK('Weekly Sales'[Weekly Netchange]) || ISBLANK('Weekly Sales'[Last Week Sales]),
BLANK(),'Weekly Sales'[Weekly Netchange] - 'Weekly Sales'[Last Week Sales]))?
Thank you for your clarification!
