I'm returning an error "single value for column WbsCode in Table4 cannot be determined...column contains many values... without specifying... a min, max, count, or sum to get a single result." I don't want any of those, but I do need to search in the text string. I'm thinking I'll need to use a CONTAINSTRING or something to get around it? 

 

For more context, here is the link to the PBI file.

    I'm able to get around the error, but it doesn't look like its calculating what I'm needing now.

    vs changing the parameters to various numbers.

     

    EDIT**** The individual Factored values changed, but the Total at the bottom of the table did not change. The proposed solution worked. Is there a reason the Total at the bottom didn't update?
