Subtotal problems

Quick questions as I keep running into this.

 

When using a matrix I want to no show subtotals for every line (as that field is unique so it makes no sense!) but I do want to see the grandtotal.

 

Somehowe if I switch off row subtotals I also have no grand totals....

Hi @rpinxt ,

Please try:

 

Measure 2 = IF(ISINSCOPE('Table'[Column1])<>ISINSCOPE('Table'[Column2]),BLANK(),[Measure])

 

Or:

 

Measure 3 = IF(ISINSCOPE('Table'[Column1])<>ISINSCOPE('Table'[Column2]),BLANK(),SUMX(SUMMARIZE('Table','Table'[Column1],'Table'[Column2]),[Measure]))

 

Result:

Ok thanks @Anonymous 

But if I'm correct then you only can do this with a measure?
And then you will always have a blank row?

Or is that only here because you also have the measure with subtotal in and maybe stepped layout on.

 

So there is no settings option like in excel where subtotals and grand totals are seperately from eachother to control?
