    Table/Matrix Totals or Subtotals

    ‎04-27-2017 03:31 PM

    I have recently come across a lot of questions in the Power BI Community where people have created a measure in a matrix, but where the Subtotals and Grand Totals do not add up.

     

    This Quick Measure will enable them to use this specifically for Matrix or Table visuals.

     

    NAME:

    Table/Matrix Totals 

    DESCRIPTION:

    This is to be specifically used when using a table or maxtrix visual and you want the totals to be correct.

    PARAMETERS:

    Name: Base value

    Tooltip: The value you want to see the percent for

    Type: Numerical field / measure

     

    Name: Category

    Tooltip: The category you want the overall total for

    Type: Text/Date

     

    DAX:

     

    Matrix {Category} Totals =

    IF(COUNTROWS(VALUES({Category})) = 1,
       {Base Value},
         SUMX(VALUES({Category}),
           {Base Value})

       )
