Total of new measure not correct

Hi 

 

I created a new measure for Est. Revenue which works fine in the rows, but the Total shows the incorrect value.

 

In this case I tried with SUMX, but it doesn't work either.

Thank you.

Hi,  @thhmez7 

Please check if these thread can be helpful.

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Incorrect-Measure-Total/m-p/454679#M210659 

Try to wrap a SUMMARIZE function within the SUMX function.

If it doesn't work ,please share a sample file for further research.

Try:

With totals =
SUMX ( VALUES ( Account[Industry] ), [Est. Revenue] )

Hi @thhmez7 

I created a column instead of a measure with DAX code below, then I added this column to the chart and total was 51451

VAR D=CALCULATE(SUM(Table[Revenue]),ALL(Table),Table[Industry]="D")
VAR C=Table[Revenue]
Return IF(Table[Industry]<>"D",D+C,0)

 

Did it work ?  👌  Mark it as a solution to help spreading knowledge  👍  A kudos would be appreciated

Hi 

do you use SUM of the revenue in VAR C?

It hasn't worked for me with the column.

@thhmez7 Var rev=Project[Est. Revenue]

No that expression in VAR rev is not allowed 😞

@thhmez7 , if D selected is not selected slicer you can create you measure like

 

calculate(sum(project[est revenue]), filter(account,account[industry] <> "D")) +0
