Calculating Total Sales by Category (multiple lines with the same category)

JAS2022 — Thu, 23 Feb 2023 22:35:40 GMT

I am trying to do a scatter plot visual that includes total sales by customer. The way my dataset is currently setup; there are multiple lines for the same customer (all lines add up to the true total sales). When I add sales to the scatter plot along with a slicer (that includes sales) to be able to view customers sales by a certain range, Power BI is not reading the true "Total Sales". See example below on what is occuring.

Customer A total sales = $9

Customer B total Sales = $3

If I slice it to say anything less than $8 customer B should only show, but power BI is reading each individual line and showing customer A at $7. Is there a way to create a formula or expression to where power BI would read Customer A at a total of $9 and B at $3 so that my slicer would work correctly?

JAS2022 , Create a numeric ?what if param and follwing measure

Total Sales = sum(Table[Sales])

GT Selected = sumx(values(Table[Filter]), if([Total Sales] >= [Parameter Measure] , [Total Sales], blank() ) )
