Unexpected totals in columns, whilst others are showing expected results.

Hello,

 

I am replicating a Tableau dashboard within PowerBI. I have a column visual where only some of the columns are returning expected totals. Column '2023' is inaccurate in PowerBI, whilst all the other columns are accurate. 2023 is the outlier:

Figure 1: The Tableau I'm replicating. As you can see, the total is 972.

Figure 2: The Powerbi replication. As you can see, the total is 912.

 

This error is only happening to 2023. Some totals are higher and lowers than what is expected.

15833774

I've confirmed that the data source is up-to-date, and calculations must be right because other columns are accurate.

 

Does any know what causes this issue and how to fix it please?
