Hi, @VL345 

 

You can use Dax calculations in Desktop.

Sample data:

vzhangti_1-1669013008929.png

Measure:

SUM = SUMX('Table',[Value])

vzhangti_0-1669012978983.png

vzhangti_2-1669013036842.png

Is this the result you expect?

Hello, 

 

Yes! Exactly like this, however its still returining the same values as it did... 

 

I think I have a problem within relationships. Because the returning sum value is exactly by only two NSR in the table. 

 

So somehow its taking value 1 and 2 and creating sum out of them, not taking Value1 X each row .. 

 

Any idea how to fix it?

 

Hi, @VL345 

 

Can you provide sample data for testing? Sensitive information can be removed in advance. What kind of expected results do you expect? You can also show it with pictures or Excel. I look forward to your response.

Hello, 

 

sorry I didnt have time yesterday - I sorted it out differently, changed the relationships between data and I am working with NSR / per day to achive my sum (instead of NSR per working days assigned) 🙂 

 

Thanks though for all your help 🙂

Hi @VL345 ,

 

Which column from which table did you use for the SUM of NSR Per Day? Which table and column is your date from. While I can see the relationships between the tables, I can only imagine which  columns are use to the  create the relationships.  This is a good read on how you can get a better response:

Hi @VL345 ,

 

If it is a regular sum, it is unlikely to not show the total of the rows. Can you please a sample data and the formula you used?

Dates filtering comes from Date (date per record submitted by user and stored in Dataverse) and the NSR per day from calculated column

It is hard to figure out what is wrong with just the information  you provided. What you're showing is the formula in PQ but the sum formula could be different in DAX. Can you please post a sanitized version of the data model? Here's how you can get a quicker/better response: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/bd-p/power-bi-designer

Sorry, 

 

I am super new to PowerBI and im not exactly sure what data you need to help me. The SUM formula created itself, where I can find the formula ?? 

 

Heres my relationships between tables. I consolidate all of it in the NSR table (the last one).

Data sample looks liket this:

 

Dates are in this format: 

VL345_1-1668779952123.png

 

and the NSR is what I show you in my previous post, its calculated in Power Query based on other (type number) data. 

 

What more can I show you to make it easy for you please??
