Unable to convert positive values to blank while negative to positive

[MusaabYaqub]

Trying to convert negative values into positive and positive values as blank. Challenge is that the Total still considers the blank values. How to not have it consider the blank values? The calculated column option would be a good one but calculated column doesnt take a dax measure as input. 

For example, the RC Volume Difference total considers the 32.53 value and I converted it to 0 but still the total considers it. Dont know how to solve this problem.

Hi, @MusaabYaqub 

Based on your description, I have created a measure and a new column to achieve the effect you are looking for. Following picture shows the effect of the display.

Measure:

New RC Volumn Difference1 =

CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Table'[RC Volumn Difference] ) )

New Column:

New RC Volumn Difference =

VAR _selectedValue = 'Table'[New RC Volumn Difference1]

VAR _RCVolumnDifference =

    IF ( _selectedValue <= 0, ABS ( _selectedValue ), 0 )

RETURN

    _RCVolumnDifference

@MusaabYaqub 

use this pattern in your measure : 

measure = 

var ds = 
addcolumns(
values(datetable[date]) , 
"rc vol diff" ,
switch(
true() , 
[your measure] < 0 , abs([mesaure]) , 
[your measure]>0 ,  [measure] * -1 ,
[your measure]
)

return 
sumx ( ds, [rc vol diff] ) 

let me know if this works for you .
