@armand453 Please try below measure.

 First I created a table for unique categories. go to modeling tab and click on new table

 

Categories = VALUES('Table'[Category])

 

then create a measure

 

Measure = 
VAR _selectedCategories = VALUES(Categories[Category])
RETURN CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Category] IN _selectedCategories))

 

Using category value from categories table in slicer and based on the selected values returning sum.

If it solved your purpose mark it as solved.

Column = LOOKUPVALUE(Table1[Value],Table2[Cat],Table1[Cat])
 
Create new measure on it to sum the values.
