    I was able to fix this using the VALUES function you mentioned above, but just making a few changes. Thank you for the direction you gave me. I appreciate it.

     

    SUMX(
    Measure 3 =

    IF([Measure 1] = BLANK(), 0, [Measure 2] - [Measure 1])
    )

Hi Fowmy,

Thank you for the quick reply. Unfortunately that did not work. 

 

Some more details on the report layout.

Project Id (dimProject)

8 measures (including the 3 above) from 2 different Fact Tables with relationships setup back to dimProject
