Show blank cells as zeros using Sum formula in dax

Hi Experts

 

how would you convert the following sum formula to show '0' in empty/blank cells as opposed to blank...

 

OHASum = SUM(OHA_[Total])

well normally blanks wouldn't appear at all unless there is value in other measures
so maybe a conditional such us this would solve it:

OHASum =
VAR OHA =
SUM ( OHA_[Total] )
RETURN
IF (
ISBLANK ( OHA )
&& ( [OtherMeasure1] <> 0
|| [OtherMeasure2] <> 0 ),
0,
OHA
)

Could you try OHASum = IF(HASONEVALUE(SUM(OHA_[Total]));0)?

this will work

OHASum = SUM(OHA_[Total])+0

the issue may be that you will see more items that you would normally like

This displays the 0 value for that particular column using the measure. However, a secondary calculated column that is attempting to subtract that measure from another, still shows a blank value. It doesn't seem to recognize the zero value.

Hi Stachu

 

Apologies but no working that data set in the table increase to show unwanted elements.....still not getting the desireed result

My bad, the if-formula is not complete.

 

OHASum = IF(HASONEVALUE(SUM(OHA_[Total]);SUM(OHA_[Total]);0)
