Trouble reporting sales per a sales level group per fiscal year

Hello -

 

I have a simple model of tables Salesperson, Sales, and Date. In the Salesperson table I have two measures: Total Sales Amount and Total Sales Level Group. The Total Sales Amount is the salesperson's total sales that can be filtered by fiscal year. The Total Sales Level Group is a group like Gold, Silver, Bronze, or Red based on the Total Sales Amount.

My Total Sales Amount DAX is: 

Total Sales Amount =
SUM ('Sales'[Amount] )
 
My Total Sales Level Group DAX is:
Total Sales Level Group =
IF([Total Sales Amount] >= 1000,"Gold",
IF([Total Sales Amount] >= 500,"Silver",
IF([Total Sales Amount] >= 100, "Bronze", "Red"
)))
 
This works as expected if I list each salesperson by name, their Total Sales Amount, and Total Sales Level Group and apply a Fiscal Year filter. However, I would like to show just the Total Sales Level Group and the Total Sales Amount for that group. This is just totaling the whole Sales Amount and giving the largest group. Is it possible to group by the Total Sales Level Group?

 
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension!

DAX is simple, but NOT EASY!
