Same totals for different columns

Hi, how can I correct wrong totals, which are shown the same here? I want to have different totals per column.
Please don't give me links to very long and hard to understand articles. Thank you!

@Anonymous Not really enough information to know what is going wrong but standard answer is this and it's not really that long or complex. But, looks like in your total row the Iva_V value is 0 so it's just going to be the SUM of your coe05 column times 1.

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

Hi @Anonymous ,

@Greg_Deckler Thanks for your concern about this case!
@Anonymous Have you solved your problem? If not, generally speaking, errors in Total in matrices or tables are due to contextual reasons. The general solution is:

Measure = SUMX(VALUES('YourTable'[Row Header Column]), [Columns for which total needs to be calculated])

Then put this measure into the table or matrix instead of the original column.
I once replied to a post about Total in the matrix, maybe it will be helpful to you:

If this does not solve your problem, please provide your sample data and a screenshot of the problem.
