Matrix Subtotals Not Adding Up with Calculate Measure

Hello,

 

I created a measure to essentially replace values for a category in the visual (08&04 Reforecast) with values from another category (Actuals) if the year and month was less than or equal to 202207 without impacting the other category values. My measure seems to be working well as you can see in the screenshot below but my subtotals are displaying values from the Actuals instead of adding up the values within rows.

 

 

 

Here is my DAX:

 

Measure =
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
MAX('PBIpull'[Type])="08&04 Reforecast" && MIN('PBIpull'[Year Month Code])>=202207,
CALCULATE(SUM('PBIpull'[Count]),'PBIpull'[Type]="08&04 Reforecast"),
MAX('PBIpull'[Type])="08&04 Reforecast" && MIN('PBIpull'[Year Month Code])<=202206,
CALCULATE(SUM('PBIpull'[Count]),'PBIpull'[Type]="Actuals"),
CALCULATE(SUM('PBIpull'[Count]))
)

 

My sample file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/17VKscN4qDQm1YS1G55nX-EzUioMjBTKq/view?usp=sharing

My PBI file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1V_SpZW_HejtOe6Qd5v8f-RSYObEeDkss/view?usp=sharing

 

I'd appreciate any help with this. Thank you.

    Measure = 
    var a = SUMMARIZE(PBIpull,[Area],[Sub-Area],[Year Month Code],[Type])
    var b = ADDCOLUMNS(a,"sm",if([Type]="08&04 Reforecast" && [Year Month Code]<=202206, CALCULATE(SUM('PBIpull'[Count]),'PBIpull'[Type]="Actuals"),calculate(sum(PBIpull[Count]))))
    return sumx(b,[sm])

    I also disconnected your Calendar table and created a calculated column in the PBIpull table

    Month Number = value(right([Year Month Code],2))

     

    Try to avoid M:M bidirectional relationships.

    Thanks lbendlin , I've attached my sample file above. My expected outcome is just that I need my matrix subtotals for the 08&04 Reforecast Measure to reflect the sum of the values in each year below which I'm not seeing currently as you can see in the screenshot above. Appreciate your help thank you.

        That works thank you! Can I apply the same formula if the values that I need to change are from a measure instead of a column?
