Sum Total Row based on Weighted Average values above it

Trying to sum the values of a weighted average column using the records above the "Total" row

I can only get the Total Row to use the same weighted average calculations as the rows above it

 

ProjectsCountPercent of TotalAverage ScoreWeighted Score 
    =C*D 
Project A1029% 3.25  0.93  
Project B514% 3.10  0.44  
Project C2057% 2.50  1.43  
 Total35100% 2.95  2.80 =.93+.44+1.43
    Need to get 2.8 NOT 2.95 
      
      
   I get this 2.95 =100% * 2.95

i still cannot get the total row to sum the weighted score rows above it

 

what do you mean by "add a calculated column"?

Hi @aykim101,

 

What I meant "Add a calculated column" is creating a column rather than measure.

Could you please teel me in your scenario, whether above fields [Count], [Percent of Total], [Average Score] and [Weighted Score] are columns or measures?

Hi @aykim101,

 

For 'Average Score', you could create a measure like:

Average Score = AVERAGE(Sheet1[Score]) 

 

For 'Weighted Score', you could create a calculated column like:

Weighted Score Col = Sheet1[Percent of Total]*[Average Score]

thank you for the reply

that is the logic being used; however the "Total" row needs to sum the row values above it and NOT use the same Weighted Score calculation

 

 

Hi @aykim101,

 

If you add a calculated column into table visual and enable the total row, the "Total" row will sum the row values above it automatically.

Assuming these are measures, you generally have to use an IF statement coupled with a HASONEFILTER statement to calculate the measure one way versus another for the individual rows versus the total row.
