I’m having trouble to sum totals of subcategory
I have two tables.
1. A table that defines unique FaceBook pages names (repository)[Page] and the name of the person responsible for the page(repository)[RESP CONTENT]
repository
2. A table of the number of likes(FaceBook)[Likes] and followers(FaceBook)[Followers] per week (FaceBook)[Date]. The join with the (repository)table is done with the (FaceBook)[Page]
What I am expecting are results like:
| RESP CONTENT | Last Likes | Last Followers | Community |
| - RESP1 | 220 | 450 | 335 |
| P1 | 70 | 100 | 85 |
| P2 | 150 | 350 | 250 |
| - RESP2 | 50 | 40 | 45 |
| P3 | 50 | 40 | 45 |
| .... | ..... | .... | ..... |
| Total | 270 | 490 | 380 |
With :
for community measure SUMX can't give me the right result !!
I try :
SUMX(values(repository[Page]), DIVIDE([Likes Rank] + [Followers Rank],2))
SUMX(allselected(repository[Page]), DIVIDE([Likes Rank] + [Followers Rank],2))
nothing works!
Please, any help?
Thank's in advance

Hi @SoufTC ,
I find a "mistake". Please let me know if this affects your calculations.
| Page | Likes | Followers | Date |
------------------------------------------------------
| P1 | 32 | 50 | 2021-02-02
| P1 | 40 | 60 | 2021-02-09
| P1 | 70 | 100 | 2021-02-16
| P2 | 80 | 150 | 2021-02-02
| P2 | 90 | 250 | 2021-02-09
| P2 | 150 | 350 | 2021-02-16
| P3 | 10 | 50 | 2021-02-02
| P3 | 32 | 50 | 2021-02-09
| P3 | 50 | 80 | 2021-02-16
What I am expecting are results like:
RESP CONTENT Last Likes Last Followers Community - RESP1 220 450 335 P1 70 100 85 P2 150 350 250 - RESP2 50 40 45 P3 50 40 45 .... ..... .... ..... Total 270 490 380
The "Last Followers" for "P3" should be "80", instead of "40". And then the "Community" should be "65". Right?
And based on my test, no need to use SUMX in your sample.
Community 3 =
DIVIDE ( [Last Likes] + [Last Followers], 2 )
