How to get SUMX Total when using iterator

Hello

 

I'm counting the number of new customers in a measure by year iterating through each Customer ID. The 1 in Number of New Customers indicates that it's a new customer. I'm using SUMX, how can I get the total?

 

Here's my code:

CALCULATE(
SUMX(
VALUES(Customer[Customer ID]),
DISTINCTCOUNT(Sales[Customer ID)
),
FILTER(
'Customer',Cust1stSalesDate >= FromSalesDate &&
Cust1stSalesDate <= ToSalesDate
)
)

Number of new customers total fix =

VAR ToSalesDate =
LASTDATE ( DimDates[Date] )
RETURN
COALESCE (
SUMX (
VALUES ( data[Customer ID] ),
CALCULATE (

Hi @Jihwan_Kim 
Thank you for replying, I have attached a sample file of what I'm trying to do.

Please note that it has to be a measure and not a calculated column.
