Mesaure is not summering the total right

Hi.

I have the following mesaure in Power BI:

 

XYC earned vacation days =
Var VacationDaysHoleYear = if([XYC Total Experiance and education]> 10, 26,20)  // detmining how manye vacation days a year depending on total calculatet experiance and education
Var VacStartDato = max(MAXX('XYC Employee','XYC Employee'[LatestStartDate]),STARTOFYEAR(Kalender[Date])) //Start of the year, or in case of employment during the year the employment date
Var VacStopDato = Min(
    If(MAXX('XYC Employee','XYC Employee'[LatestStopDate])<STARTOFYEAR(Kalender[Date]),ENDOFMONTH(Kalender[Date])),ENDOFMONTH(Kalender[Date])) //End of month, or in case of a stop date during the year, then stop date
Var NumberOfMonths = DATEDIFF(VacStartDato,VacStopDato,MONTH)+1 // calculating the number of months in the year
Return
ROUNDUP(VacationDaysHoleYear/12*NumberOfMonths,0) // calculating how many vacation days earned for the year
 
It is calculation correct for each employee but not in total.

@Moller70 First, please vote for this idea: https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=082203f1-594f-4ba7-ac87-bb91096c742e

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:

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

@Greg_Deckler  thank you for your reply.
Now I have changede my mesaure to:

XYC earned vacation days =
Var VacationDaysHoleYear = if([XYC Total Experiance and education]> 10, 26,20)  // detmining how manye vacation days a year depending on total calculatet experiance and education
Var VacStartDato = max(MAXX('XYC Employee','XYC Employee'[LatestStartDate]),STARTOFYEAR(Kalender[Date])) //Start of the year, or in case of employment during the year the employment date
Var VacStopDato = Min(
    If(MAXX('XYC Employee','XYC Employee'[LatestStopDate])<STARTOFYEAR(Kalender[Date]),ENDOFMONTH(Kalender[Date])),ENDOFMONTH(Kalender[Date])) //End of month, or in case of a stop date during the year, then stop date
Var NumberOfMonths = DATEDIFF(VacStartDato,VacStopDato,MONTH)+1 // calculating the number of months in the year
Var m_Single = ROUNDUP(VacationDaysHoleYear/12*NumberOfMonths,0) // calculating how many vacation days earned for the year
Var _table = SUMMARIZE('XYC Employee','XYC Employee'[Employeeno],"_value",m_Single)
Return
If(HASONEVALUE('XYC Employee'[Employeeno]),m_Single,sumx(_table,[_value]))
 
But this is now showing a total of 18, but I shall be 25. And in a chart is is showing 48. So now I am confused.

 My old measure is showing 3 i both the tabel and chart, but it should be 25.
@Greg_Deckler do you have any suggestions?
