Totals Don't Add Up

I'm struggling with the following result - for some reason, my totals are not adding up:

 

Untitled00.png

 

My dax measures are below:

 

Total Visits = var t=SUMMARIZE('warehouse','warehouse'[CreatedAt],"UserDistinct",DISTINCTCOUNT('warehouse'[ID] ))return

SUMX(t,[UserDistinct])

 

Eval = calculate(distinctcount('warehouse'[ID]),filter(ALLSELECTED('warehouse'[Service]),search("Meet",'warehouse '[Service],1,0)>0 || search("Eval",'warehouse'[Service],1,0)>0 || search("M&G",'warehouse'[Service],1,0)>0))

 

Visits -Eval = [Total Visits] - [Eval]

 

Any help would be appreciated!  Not sure how this is going wrong, but the totals for Eval are expected to be 48.

 

Thank you!!

Hi @jackj ,

 

For this type of error, half are caused by the filter conditions. The allselect function ignores any filters that may be applied to the query, and only keeps the filters from the outside.

Try the following dax formula:

Eval =
CALCULATE (
    DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'warehouse'[ID] ),
    FILTER (
        ALLEXCEPT ( 'warehouse', 'warehouse'[Service] ),
        SEARCH ( "Meet", 'warehouse '[Service], 1, 0 ) > 0
            || SEARCH ( "Eval", 'warehouse'[Service], 1, 0 ) > 0
            || SEARCH ( "M&G", 'warehouse'[Service], 1, 0 ) > 0
    )
)


If the problem is still not resolved, can you provide the relevant test data model for me to do further testing. Looking forward to your reply.


Best Regards,
Henry

@jackj 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
