    Well, there's your problem. It's defined as the sum of averages over departments.

     

    If you want it to sum over whatever dimension you're using on columns (phase?), then that needs to be part of the definition. For example,

    VAR esthrs =
    SUMX (
        SUMMARIZE (
            INTERNAL__PROJECT_MANAGEMENT__BENCHMARK,
            INTERNAL__PROJECT_MANAGEMENT__BENCHMARK[DEPARTMENT_NAME],
            INTERNAL__PROJECT_MANAGEMENT__BENCHMARK[PROJECT_PHASE], /* <-- New line here */
            "AvgEst", AVERAGE ( INTERNAL__PROJECT_MANAGEMENT__BENCHMARK[ESTIMATED_HOURS] )
        ),
        [AvgEst]
    )

      AlexisOlson , there is a option in matrix for column grand total. So its auto created because of that. & Estimated hrs measure is:

      Estimated hrs =
      VAR _check =
          INT (
              NOT ISINSCOPE ( INTERNAL__PROJECT_MANAGEMENT__BENCHMARK[EMPLOYEE_NAME] )
                  && ISINSCOPE ( INTERNAL__PROJECT_MANAGEMENT__BENCHMARK[PROJECT_PHASE] )
          )
      VAR _check2 =
          INT (
              NOT ISINSCOPE ( INTERNAL__PROJECT_MANAGEMENT__BENCHMARK[EMPLOYEE_NAME] )
                  && ISINSCOPE ( INTERNAL__PROJECT_MANAGEMENT__BENCHMARK[PROJECT_PHASE] )
                  && NOT ISINSCOPE ( INTERNAL__PROJECT_MANAGEMENT__BENCHMARK[DEPARTMENT_NAME] )
          )
      VAR esthrs =
          SUMX (
              SUMMARIZE (
                  INTERNAL__PROJECT_MANAGEMENT__BENCHMARK,
                  INTERNAL__PROJECT_MANAGEMENT__BENCHMARK[DEPARTMENT_NAME],
                  "AvgEst", AVERAGE ( INTERNAL__PROJECT_MANAGEMENT__BENCHMARK[ESTIMATED_HOURS] )
              ),
              [AvgEst]
          )
      RETURN
          IF ( _check = 1, esthrs, esthrs )

    AlexisOlson , ok! The user is actually drilling down & up at row level

    (department-> employee and viceversa) .

    So , do that affect the above logic?? Any changes in measure required?

    thanks!
