Hi MDR ,
Try this.
SUMX (
SUM( 'Table'[Amount] ),
CALCULATE ( DISTINCT ( 'Table'[Scrid] ) , 'Table'[datanameshort]='name' and 'Table'[status] = 'status)
)
Thanks,
Pratyasha Samal

Thanks pratyashasamal this returns the following error:

The SUMX function expects a table expression for argument '1', but a string or numeric expression was used.
