Summing a measure

 

Hi All, Hope everyone is having a good weekend.

I am having a hard time summing a measure, hoping someone can help me.

The measure I have on a metrix visual is:

Greater than 3 Days = IF([NetworkingDays] > 3, 0, 1)

This works as you can see from below table hightlighted in yellow, however, I want to make the column sum and I can't figure it out. Right now it totals 0. Can someone help me modify the formula so it totals 4 like below in Red?

Hi @tamerj1 ,
There is a problem here is the result I get. I should have mentioned that each record is in the data multiple times.
Is there any way to fix it?
