Aggr function with column return from temp table

Dear all, 

I'm a newbie in DAX, in my lab I try to use SUMX function to sum all premium fee group by industry. 

My DAX function is below: 

EVALUATE
	var temp = 
	FILTER(
		SUMMARIZE(
			Premium_table,
			Premium_table[Industry],
			Premium_table[SUM PREMIUM]
			),
			
	[SUM PREMIUM] > 10000)
 
	RETURN 
		ADDCOLUMNS( 
			temp, 
			"sum_groupby_Industry" , SUMX(temp, temp[SUM PREMIUM])
		
		
		)

 

Tried with DAX studio, it failed with log "Query (15, 40) Cannot find table 'temp' , I think I have defined temp table in above already , could you please assist on my issue ?

Hi,

Thank you for your message.

In my opinion, the below part was the cause, so I changed to the original table name. 

temp is a virtual table that is created inside the formula, but when creating it, it used the original column name ( Premium_table[SUM PREMIUM] ) in SUMMARIZE function.

new addco table =
VAR temp =

        SUMMARIZE ( Premium_table, Premium_table[Industry], Premium_table[SUM PREMIUM] ),
        [SUM PREMIUM] > 10000
    )
RETURN
    ADDCOLUMNS (
        temp,
        "sum_groupby_Industry", SUMX ( temp, Premium_table[SUM PREMIUM] )
    )
