NEED HELP WITH SIMPLE DAX

[AbbasG]

Hello All,

I have created a simple measure to calculate margin value (Total sales - total cost). However, for a few lines, it gives weird results.

An example is below in blue that my Dax measure produces with the expected outcome in green.

Hi  @AbbasG ,

Does your data contain data with the same column and different values:

When placed on a Visual, the same [Model] is aggregated together.

If you use the Max() function in your Measure, the maximum value of each [Model] will be taken, not the total aggregate value.

You can use the Sum() function to get the aggregate value:

Sum_Measure =
SUM('Table'[Value1]) - SUM('Table'[Value2])
