issues with option "don't summarize"

so there are 3 columsn and 2 measures in the grid. out of those 3 columns, have a column abc in the grid. when i select the option "don't summarize" for the column abc at report level,  the table visual becomes empty. 

whereas when i select any other options like "sum" for the same column abc, then the grid shows one row which is correct. and it shows value 1 for column abc

 

and actual value of that abc column is 1 in database for that row. 

 

does anyone know why its working this way? appreciate your help 🙂

@anonymous_98 , the measure can reduce the values of not summarized columns. Use the ABC column in the table as do not summarize, and check if you are getting data. if yes, then check why your measures are removing values of ABC

yes, you are right. those 2 measures are removing that row because we are returning blank based on a condition like "if valiue <> 0 then value else blank".

 

and the abc column is a flag.

 

so if i do sum for abc column at grid level then it shows the row which is correct.

 

but user don't want to see abc flag in the table. so if i remove abc flag column then that row does not show.

 

so my requirement is like to show that row(s) in table which has flag = 1(without showing flag column in table visual) even if value of those 2 measures is blank. 

 

i just wanted to understand how the table visual works. so that based on that understanding i can write a logic in measure
