Line graph - adding a total average line

‎10-27-2017 09:15 AM

Hi,

 

I have a line graph showing sales by region (the regions are the legend). Please can you tell me how to add a "Total Sales" line (i.e. all the regions added together), while still showing the region splits?

 

Thanks,

 

CM

create new measure for total sales something like this:

 

Total Sales = Calculate(Sum(Table1[Sales]), All(Table1))

You can create a calculated column as mentioned by @parry2k

Coming to the visual, you can make use of POWERKPI chart instead of a simple Line Chart to show both line at one time.
