Sum of a column error

Hi,

 

I am trying find the sum of a column with multiple filter values.

Screenshot below - I would like to calculate the total sum of hours from the "Hours" column if the INV column is value 21, 23, 27 ,28 etc.

I have tried the following DAX

Productive Value = CALCULATE(SUM(Sheet[Hours]), FILTER(Sheet, Sheet[INV] = 21&29&27))
 
But get the error also in the screenshot.
 
If i only want to filter by one value i.e 21 this DAX works
Productive Value = CALCULATE(SUM(Sheet[Hours]), FILTER(Sheet, Sheet[INV] = 21))
 
Is there a DAX to allow me to filter multiple values in the same column?

Hi @JamesGordon 

try

Productive Value = CALCULATE(SUM(Sheet[Hours]), FILTER(Sheet, Sheet[INV] IN {21,29,27}))

or

Productive Value = CALCULATE(SUM(Sheet[Hours]), FILTER(Sheet, Sheet[INV] = 21 || Sheet[INV] = 29 || Sheet[INV] = 27))
