SUM not calculating the right answer

[Anonymous]

Hi All,

I am using tabular model for my PBI reports. I have forecast numbers coming from the cube . Now I want to sum the forecast numbers . It should be a very straight calcualtion but my measure is not giving me the right answer. I am lost and not able to understand the issue.

Measure 4 :=

calculate(sum('FACT SAVINGS'[FORECAST]))

INITIATIVE CODE	MONTH SHORT	FORECAST	Measure 4
SAV002855	Jan	0	0
SAV002855	Mar	0	0
SAV002855	Jan	40	200
SAV002855	Jan	4000	40000
SAV002855	Jan	30000	150000
SAV002855	Jan	100000	500000
SAV002855	Jan	195401	195401
SAV002855	Jan	280000	1400000
SAV002855	Jan	380000	380000
SAV002855	Jan	400000	400000
SAV002855	Jan	900000	4500000
SAV002855	Jan	1300000	1300000
SAV002855	Jan	2746048	13730238.75
Total			22595839.75

Hi @Anonymous 

Do you have multiple same FORECAST value for the same month and same initiative code in the source table? Try adding FORECAST column to the table visual and select SUM aggregation for it to check whether the sum result is equal to the measure result. If they are equal, I think the measure is correct.
