Matrix - Total in a measure doesn't sum up

I build a matrix where one of the column is a measure that take the biggest number between data coming from 2 differents sources : 

 

Inscription = SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    SUM('Prod Asso Inscrites OnLine'[Inscription Prod]) > SUM('GA Asso Inscrites OnLine'[Associations Inscrites]), SUM('Prod Asso Inscrites OnLine'[Inscription Prod]),
    SUM('Prod Asso Inscrites OnLine'[Inscription Prod]) <= SUM('GA Asso Inscrites OnLine'[Associations Inscrites]), SUM('GA Asso Inscrites OnLine'[Associations Inscrites])
)

But as you can see the tota show me 3572 instead of 3813.

Try this MEASURE which references your original measure

Idea is to sum up the MEASURE "Inscription" for all "Canaux Online" values

 

iNSCRIPTION2 =
IF (
    HASONEFILTER ( TableName[Canaux Online] ),
    [Inscription],
    SUMX ( VALUES ( TableName[Canaux Online] ), [Inscription] )
)

@Zubair_Muhammad 

Thank but how do I add this measure to my matrix as a total ?

Just Add this MEASURE in the MAtrix's Values section.

Replace TableName with your actual TableName

HI @Anonymous ,

Actually, you not need to use switch function. SWITCH function not suitable to handle summarize records, you can use max function to package these calculations to return the bigger one.

Inscription =
MAX (
    SUM ( 'Prod Asso Inscrites OnLine'[Inscription Prod] ),
    SUM ( 'GA Asso Inscrites OnLine'[Associations Inscrites] )
)
