Spread total over rows

[paulfink]

Hi guys, 

I need have a measure that takes the value depending on the progress of a task.

I need to take them totals and spread it across a project.

Project	Task	Value	DESIRED
1	A	10	45
1	B	15	45
1	C	20	45
2	A	5	30
2	B	10	30
2	C	15	30

This is what i need based on my current table.

I have this measure which works:

Change Val Total = CALCULATE(SUM('Table1'[Value]), ALLEXCEPT('Table1', 'Table1'[Project], 'Table1'[Date]))

but the value needs to be a measure, as it is bringing back errors on other formulas.

I have my measure ready (Value1) i just dont know how to do the spread out formula.

How could i do this

Hi, @paulfink 

Based on your description, I created data to reproduce your scenario. The pbix file is attached in the end.

Table:

Value(Measure):

Value = 
var _pro = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Project])
var _task = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Task])
return
SWITCH(
    _pro,
    1,
    SWITCH(
        _task,
        "A",10,
        "B",15,
        "C",20
    ),
    2,
    SWITCH(
        _task,
        "A",5,
        "B",10,
        "C",15
    )
)

You may create a measure like below.

Desired = 
var tab = 
SUMMARIZE(
    ALL('Table'),
    'Table'[Project],
    'Table'[Task],
    "Value",
    var _pro = 'Table'[Project]
    var _task = 'Table'[Task]
    return
    SWITCH(
        _pro,
        1,
        SWITCH(
            _task,
            "A",10,
            "B",15,
            "C",20
        ),
        2,
        SWITCH(
            _task,
            "A",5,
            "B",10,
            "C",15
        )
    )
)
return
SUMX(
    FILTER(
        tab,
        [Project]=SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Project])
    ),
    [Value]
)

Result:

@paulfink , where is date,

It should be like

Sub Total = CALCULATE(SUM('Table1'[Value]), ALLEXCEPT('Table1', 'Table1'[Project]))

[paulfink]

@amitchandak I have already tried that and it does not work.

I need the value to be a measure so please reference it as Value1.

[amitchandak]

@paulfink ,

Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.

[paulfink]

@amitchandak there is already an example in my post

[amitchandak]

@paulfink , That is an image. Not the fastest way. I need to create data myself?

[paulfink]

@amitchandak have you managed to find a solution?
