Request: Base footer in table to how you are displaying the data, not always 'Total'

[water-guy-5]

If this has already been requested then please direct me to it but I would like PowerBI to give more options in the visualization of table data.

If I am sorting by Average, Minumim, Maxmimum, or Count, then 'Total' should change too. It's misleading for the viewer. 'Total' should only be displayed if it's the Sum.

Hi  @water-guy-5 ,

You can use HASONEVALUE to resolve.

I created some data:

Here are the steps you can follow：

1. Create measure.

Calculate Sum =
var Table1=SUMMARIZE('Table','Table'[Date],"_value",[Measure_Sum])
return IF(HASONEVALUE('Table'[Date]),[Measure_Sum],SUMX(Table1,[_value]))

2. Result:

Normally you would use ISINSCOPE to filter out totals. Something along the lines of 

Filter out totals = IF(ISINSCOPE (Table[Column]), [measure])
