It would be great if Grand Totals on a Matrix or Table would add up correctly to the sum of the rows when you include MEASURES in the visual. Currently the total on a measure consists of the measure function itself, instead of the sum of the rows above. PLEASE give us the option to toggle totals to be a simple aggregate of the rows above also.

Moving this idea to "under review" to mark that discussions are underway. For full transparency, we have started working on DAX calculations at the visual level. That feature will make changes that will serve as building blocks for other features, including but not limited to the one discussed in this idea: providing more flexibility for influencing what is shown on the total: the visual total, the "DAX" total, or another expression altogether.
Hence, the delivery of this Idea will be dependent on the DAX-calculations-on-a-visual feature.

visual totals in tables
In SSAS in Excel it is possible in a pivot table to show "Visual Total" and not the total (Total). It's currently not possible in tables/matrix in Power Pivot - and should be...

Measure total in a Table
I would the possibility to define the Total behavior in a Table or in a Matrix for the measures. Currently Power BI is using the Measure in the total with a different filter context that can bring to wrong totals. This "issue" could be solved with the possibility to set a different measure for ...

Option of summing columns and row in tables and matrices
I have had a continuous problem with totals not summing my columns. I've seen different solutions online, but they all involve coding that is not applicable to my model (calculating attribution based on allocation and returns through measures). The easy option would be to add an option on how tot...

Select if the total row should give a sum or an average for every field
In a table, it can make sense to put a sum in the total row, but in some cases, ex.: when the field is a rate or a percentage, it would make more sense to put an average instead of a sum. Student A got 70% in his exam Student B got 80% in his exam Student C got 90% in his exam Knowing that the...

Matrix totals only as sum of values
It can be readily demonstrated that, for example, a displayed row total is not always the sum of displayed row values. There can be no justification for this. An example of this behavior is available on request.

Change column total behavior
Please, it is not fun to explain to executives, why column grand totals are not the sum of the row data in the column. It is not fun, to explain the grand total, is the formula in the context of the entire range of data and not the sum of what is being displayed. Please, allow us to change the ...

Average column/row in a matrix?

Matrix Grand Total Sum
For example, in my Matrix I have two columns that are multiplied together, creating a Quick Measure that I used for a THIRD column in the matrix. I would like the "Grand Total Sum" at the bottom to be the Sum of the values in the third column. However, right now the Total at the bottom represents...

Customize Totals
I want the option where i can customize the totals as per my requirement. The present scenario gives us the option to either display totals or not . But i think if there is a option where we can customize the totals to not just simply sum up the data, but rather applying filters on what data need...

MATRIX GRAND TOTAL, SUBTOTALS can't select SUM,COUNT,AVERAGE...ETC
Actually grand total and subtotals only summarizes according to the function of the displayed value, but it is necessary sometimes, summarize: sum,average,count... at the same matrix, for example it is not easy if the value displayed only is sum . There are way to achieve this, but it is not as s...
