Hi, @Anusha__v 

Sorry, I misunderstood your question at first.

I created a new column index, avoided automatic aggregation of views and tested their differences between desktop and service. At the same time, I created a measure and a calculated column to compare, using the case of 0. Because in the case of a measure or calculated column that results as a null value, the view automatically aggregates and doesn't show anything.

In desktop:

In service:

After testing, they are not different.

Hi, @Anusha__v 
Based on your information, I create a sample table.

If you want to calculate the sum of the measure only if it is Yes, you can try the following DAX:

Measure = IF(FIRSTNONBLANK('Table'[Target],0)="Yes",BLANK(),SUM('Table'[Weight]))
