Hi DNA Team,

Hopefully everyone is well on there lead up to the end of the year.

Could someone please help me up with a quick SUM a text field measure.

I’m simply trying to sum a column with text: BIM and No-BIM in the column.

Ive had a go, with:

  • Sum Of BIM Projects = SUMX ( BimDataFinal,
    IFERROR(
    VALUE(BimDataFinal[BIM ]),0))

Not quite there with it! any help would be great.

Cheers Adam,
