Hi @shaykoooo,

 

Here I made one sample to reproduce your issue. Here we can use SUMX to fix the total value. f it doesn't make sense, kindly post your sample data and your formulas here.

 

Measure = SUM(Table1[Column1])/SUM(Table1[Column2])
Measure 2 = SUMX('Table1',[Measure])

People usually use the "Attachments" field to upload attachments or post a cloud drive link (One Drive). Or images. Please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490

 

But, I am thinking that perhaps your issue is: 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

I don't see the attachment icom, unforunately, your article didn't help me. I wish there was a way to upload the file.

 

Thanks again!

Hmm, you may not get that if you haven't confirmed your email address. People often upload their file to something like One Drive or Box, etc. and then create a share link that anyone can access and then just post that URL.

I found a sort of a workaround by adding a helper column in the database.
