Show total sum in each row for the category

I want to achieve the following:

The Problem is, that the value column from my table visual is also a measure. Any idea how to achieve that?

Hi @John-Cena88 ,

First of all, many thanks to @Greg_Deckler  for your very quick and effective replies, and I will give some additions below:

1.Create the sample table.

2.Create the new measure to calculate value.

 

Value = 
VAR pro_ = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Product])
RETURN
IF(pro_ = "A1" || pro_ = "A2", 2, 
    IF(pro_ = "A3" || pro_ = "A4", 3, 
        IF(pro_ = "B1" || pro_ = "B2", 5, 6)
    )
)

 

3.Create the new measure to calculate total for category.

 

total sum = CALCULATE(SUMX('Table', 'Table'[Value]), ALLEXCEPT('Table', 'Table'[Category]))

 

4.Drag the measure into the table visual. The result is shown below.

Hi,

Write this measure

Total value per category = calculate([Value],all(Data[Product]))

Hope this helps.

@John-Cena88 This looks like a measure aggregation problem. See my blog article about that here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Design-Pattern-Groups-and-Super-Groups/ba-p/138149

The pattern is:
MinScoreMeasure = MINX ( SUMMARIZE ( Table, Table[Group] , "Measure",[YourMeasure] ), [Measure])
MaxScoreMeasure = MAXX ( SUMMARIZE ( Table, Table[Group] , "Measure",[YourMeasure] ), [Measure])
AvgScoreMeasure = AVERAGEX ( SUMMARIZE ( Table, Table[Group] , "Measure",[YourMeasure] ), [Measure])
etc.

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

I tried your solution and it does not work. It still displays the total split by Product. 

Hi @John-Cena88 ,

I provided the sample file above, try to use it. If the method is useful, please consider Accept it as the solution to help the other members find it more quickly.
