Hi, you would need to show the entire table. With limited information I'd recommend using Power Query to transform your data a bit more again. 

In Power Query, Group by Unique ID and apply below logic to handle cancellations:
- In Power Query Editor, select your table.
- Go to 'Transform', and then 'Group By'
- Group by 'Unique ID' and aggregate 'Sum of Total Amount (USD)' with `Sum`.
- Nomally this will automatically cancel out positive/negative values for the same ID.

 

After transforming in Power Query, load your data in Power BI for reporting. 

Hope it helps:)
