Problem with SUMX and Matrix

Hi!

 

I have a strange problem here. I'm using a SUMX formula for this case. When I put in a matrix to verify the count for every person, the formula works very well.sumx2.png

 

The problem starts as soon as I remove the personID (the idea is to get the global count without the person) like this...  the SUMX just got crazy... at least the global total keeps fine (is very confusing).

I would like to understand why is this happening. Here is my file: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AtTnrgPUQzQCgrQz7S3DIKPscD6ppA

 

Hope you guys can help me to solve that.

 

Nice day.

hi, @AlejandroPCar 

This looks like a measure totals problem. Very common. See this post about it here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/DAX-Commands-and-Tips/Dealing-with-Measure-Totals/td-p/63376

Also, this Quick Measure, Measure Totals, The Final Word should get you what you need:
https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Quick-Measures-Gallery/Measure-Totals-The-Final-Word/m-p/547907

You may try to add a new measure

Measure = IF(HASONEVALUE(Energia[intervencion]),[Inmediato_1],
CALCULATE(
            CALCULATE(
                COUNTROWS(Energia),
                Separacion[ifuturo] = 1
            ),
            FILTER(
                Separacion,
                (VALUES(Tiempo_Inicial[Fecha_Mes]) >= Separacion[fechain] &&
                VALUES(Tiempo_Inicial[Fecha_Mes]) >= Separacion[fechafi]) ||
                (VALUES(Tiempo_Final[Fecha_Mes]) >= Separacion[fechain] &&
                VALUES(Tiempo_Final[Fecha_Mes]) >= Separacion[fechafi])
            
        )))

Result:
