It took some trial and error, but I got this to work using a series of measures for each scenario. Here is what I came up with for my final code:

 

WEEK-TAR =
VAR WETAR =
    SUM('Sales Visuals Data'[Weekly Target])
RETURN WETAR
 
WEEK-COLOR =
VAR WECOL =
    IF(SUM(YTD_Invoices[INVOICEAMOUNT])>='Sales Visuals Data'[WEEK-TAR],"GREEN","RED")
RETURN WECOL

 

MONTH-TAR =
VAR MOTAR =
    SUM('Sales Visuals Data'[Monthly Target])
RETURN MOTAR
 
MONTH-COLOR =
VAR MOCOL =
    IF(SUM(YTD_Invoices[INVOICEAMOUNT])>='Sales Visuals Data'[MONTH-TAR],"GREEN","RED")
RETURN MOCOL

 

2019-YTD-TAR =
VAR YTDTAR =
    SUM('Sales Visuals Data'[2019 YTD Target])
RETURN YTDTAR
 
YTD-COLOR =
VAR YTDCOL =
    IF(SUM(YTD_Invoices[INVOICEAMOUNT])>='Sales Visuals Data'[2019-YTD-TAR],"GREEN","RED")
RETURN YTDCOL
 
Thanks again for your help!
