Good morning,
I am trying to get the Net pay on my bi report but it shows 64500.01 as my total netpay instead of 8826.7, I am not sure why this may be happening...please help. Thank you!
@sraj This looks like a measure totals problem. Very common. See my post about it here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/DAX-Commands-and-Tips/Dealing-with-Measure-Totals/td-p/63376
Also, this Quick Measure, Measure Totals, The Final Word should get you what you need:

Hi Greg,
I dont have any if's like 1000 above then total...I want a straight total. How would I do that using your suggestion.?
Thanks for your help!
@sraj - Not quite clear on what you are saying.

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.
I am trying to get the Net pay on my bi report but it shows 64500.01 as my total netpay instead of 8826.7, I am not sure why this may be happening...I had mentioned all the examples above so didnt know it wasnt viewable. In your example it has an if statement >1000...I am looking for every value out there.
Thank you!
