Wrong table total

Hello!
I reach out to you in hopes to get help here. 

I have tables where the total does not sum up the correct way. See example: 

 

CApowerbi_2-1684918918033.png

 

The red area to the left= The companies in our business. 


As you can see I have highlited the total rows which is not sum up the correct way. 
The "average lönekostnad ex soc" is not supposed to be in the table, but I brought it in here since I use it in the measure for "total lönekostnad ex soc". The total row in "Total lönekostnad ex soc" is multiplying "antal konsulter"=208 x "Average lönekostnad ex soc"=-45001,75. 
This is not correct. I want the "total lönekostnad ex soc" total row to summarize the total for the rows that is over it. 

 

This is the measure I use for the "total lönekostnad ex soc":

Total lönekostnad ex. soc = [Average lönekostnad ex soc]* [Antal konsulter]


Do you understand my problem? 

Hope that you can help me! 

Best regards!

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

I suggest you to use SUMX() function to create a new measure based on [Average lönekostnad ex soc].

New Average lönekostnad ex soc =
SUMX (
    VALUES ( 'TableName'[ColumnName on Matrix Row] ),
    [Average lönekostnad ex soc]
)
Total lönekostnad ex. soc =
[New Average lönekostnad ex soc] * [Antal konsulter]
