Create Measure to Sum Up Column Total Based on User Picking Date

I'm trying to write a measure that sums up the entire column based on a user picking a date on a slicer. 

 

This is what I have so far: 

 

CalculatePastDue = CALCULATE(SUM(Invoice[AmtUSD]),FILTER(Invoice,Invoice[PaidDate] <= RELATED(DateTable[Date])))

 

However, it's not summing the total of the column. It's only summing up the value for that one particular date.

    Thank you for replying. For some reason it's adding a lot more values (6.8 M). I added the data table into the original question for a frame of reference.

    What is the date column in the slicer? Vvelarde's DAX shall work based on my test. Alternatively, you can create a measure as simple as sumTotal = SUM(Invoice[AmtUSD]) and use "BEFORE" in the slicer. See attached pbix file.

     

    For further suggestion, please post upload the pbix file. You can upload it to Onedrive/GoogleDrive and share the download link. Do remember to mask sensitive data before uploading.

    Hi,

     

    Create a relationship from the PaidDate column in the Invoice table to the Date column in the DateTable table.  In the visual, drag the Date column from the DateTable table.  Now try this formula

     

    =CALCULATE(SUM(Invoice[AmtUSD]),FILTER(Invoice,Invoice[PaidDate] <= MAX(DateTable[Date])))

    Hope this helps.
