Assigning value based on selection

Hello,

I am currently trying to do the following thing:

I have a filter that is either "new" or "old", both optioins can be selected or also just one. I need to apply the following conditions:

- If "new" is selected, calculate the sum of column 1

- If "old" is selected, calculate the sum of column 2

- If both are selected, calculate the sum of column 3 (which is basically the sum of column 1 and column 2)

Is this possible?

Thank you

@Youdontknowme , Try a new column

Switch( Selectedvalue(Table[options]) ,
"new", sum(Table[column1]),
"old", sum(Table[column2]),
sum(Table[column3])
)
