Power BI Measure - Summarize distinct values
I am trying to find the sum for defective effort but I need it to only sum distinct WorkItemId where Links.TargetWorkItem.WorkItemId is not blank Measures I currently have: Defective Effort = ...

Hi Thumper369 ,
Here's the solution.
1.The dummy data I created.
2.Create a measure to calculate the Defective Effort.
Defective Effort = CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Work items with direct links'[Effort] ), FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Work items with direct links' ), [ID] = MAX ( 'Work items with direct links'[ID] ) && [Links.TargetWorkItem.WorkItemId] <> BLANK () ) )3.You can see that the total in the table is incorrect, so we just need to create a new measure to add them correctly.
4.The new measure.
Total = VAR _table = ADDCOLUMNS ( VALUES ( 'Work items with direct links'[ID] ), "DE", [Defective Effort] ) RETURN SUMX ( _table, [DE] )If you're still confused, please provide some dummy data and expected results.
Best Regards,

The problem I was having turned out to be the relationship betwen two tables. Created a table with only one entry for each sprint # then tied all the tables back to that table with a 1:many instead of many:many. This resolved the problem.
Thanks everyoe for your help.
