Sumproduct when no value is present in the table

I have a table looking like this:

Product; Amount (tons);Sales Location; %of product sold in that location

1;100;Europe;4

1;100;NorthAmerica;60

1;100;SouthAmerica;36

2;50;Europe;20

2;50;Africa;40

2;50;Asia;40

--> now I want to make a graph with "sales location" as dimension, and as measure "sum(Amount*%of product)"

--> eg to calculate the weight sold in each location. So should be 4% *100 + 20% * 50 for Europe eg.

However, I do not get a value for eg. North America since no % is found for product 2. (In case the region is not in list for a certain product it means that the % sold there = 0).

Can someone help ?

Thanks !

How does this look?

If it is, then try this

Sum(Aggr(

    (sum([wetweight (tons)])
    -
    Sum({<Contentname={'H2O'}>}[wetweight (tons)]*[Content%])/100)
    *
    sum({<Contentname={'sand'}>}[Content%]/100)

, productnr, category))

I am not seeing any issue when I try to use Sum([Amount (tons)] * [%of product]) with the data provided.

You could try adding + Sum({1} 0) to the formula and see if that helps  and/or check the setting under Add-Ons->Data Handling->Include Zero Values

seemed that my example was too simple for what i actually wanted to do.

Hereby my load script: 

table1:

product-nr

product-category

total wet weigth (//in tons)

table2: 

product-nr

contentName (//eg H2O,sand,metal)

content%

 

And I want to plot following graph:

-  dimension = product category

 - measure = sum ( ([TotalWetWeight])*(100-[Content](--> when contentname=H2O))/100*([Content] (when contentname=metal)) )

Would you be able to share some data and the output you expect to see from it?

see attached (is this format ok, or do you prefer excel input?)

graph on the right is the desired one (but data is summed wrong ! )

graph on the left has the right data (but not the desired dimension)
