Subtraction of Below value ( Droped Calls )

Hello Expertise,
I am facing a problem with this measure where I want the dropped call of every terminating client by destination and Originating Client 
I have call records data where every originating client has some region and on those regions, there are multiple terminating clients these Terminating client receives calls except successful calls other calls are then passed on to other terminating clients

Example: here is an originating client named Tom he transferred  500 calls to Timtim terminating clients of the India region, Successful Calls are the calls Teremanating clients are accepting here Timtin Terminating client has not accepted any calls then he should drop those 500 calls to the next terminating client but as you can see in the table he dropped only 300 calls, now the total calls for Nyer terminating is 300, I this scenario the measure should return 200 as 200 calls are Killed.
Here originating client, Terminating client and region are columns, and others are measures


Please see the sample Data -

TomIndiaNyer3005025030
TomIndiaMSD220221838

Thank you in advance

Hi @hello_ ,

Based on your problems, here are my answers.

In Power BI, measure and calculate columns deal with relationships between columns and are not directly associated with other rows. The data you provided seems to be a row to row relationship, I can get Diff's measure but I can't realize the other measures.

Column = 'Table'[Total_calls] - 'Table'[Successful calls]

Hi @hello_ ,

I have understood you that you want to build a Measure for Killed_calls, but as I said in my reply above, it looks as if there is no logic to get Killed_calls as a Measure, and it looks like it's a row to row relationship, where in Power BI Measure and Calculate Column are column-to-column relationships, so it's more difficult to try to implement.
