Incorrect Sum of Number - SUMX & Roundup

I am having an issue when I try to find the sum of a roudup total using SUMX.

 

I have these measure:

 

Inventory Sum Cases =
SUMX(Inventory,Inventory[Quantity_Available])

 

Inventory Sum Pallets - Round Up =
ROUNDUP(
SUMX((Inventory),DIVIDE([Inventory Sum Cases],RELATED('Item List'[Cases per Pallet]),0)),
0
)
 
When I drag the Inventory Sum Pallets - Round Up measure into the table, it calculates each pallet correctly. However, when I try to summarize it into a card, it seems to perform the roundup funciton at the end. I want it to perform the round up function on each row, and then add up the total at the end.
 
These are what the measure looks like:

This is what the non-roundup measure looks like:

For the total, I would like to get a number that adds the total of roundup numbers, but instead it adds a total of non-roundup numbers, and then rounds that number up.

 

Please let me know if I can change my measure(s) to fix this.

 

Thanks!
