Cumulative Total with an additional filter category

I would like to filter the running cumulative total based on categories. However, the general running cumulative total measure I use, does not appear to be filtering correctly. At the moment, my work around has been creating a CalculatedTable where I filter based on the category and then create a cumulative total measure on the filtered table. This returns the correct values. I do realize that for performance reasons this is definitely not the best way to go. Ideally, I should be able to take the following measure: 

Amount running total in %Date =
CALCULATE(
    SUM('Sachposten'[Amount]),
    FILTER(
        ALLSELECTED('Kalender'[%Date]),
        ISONORAFTER('Kalender'[%Date], MAX('Kalender'[%Date]), DESC)
    )
)
 
and do the following 
Amount running total in %Date =
CALCULATE(
    SUM('Sachposten'[Amount]),
    FILTER(
        ALLSELECTED('Kalender'[%Date]),
        ISONORAFTER('Kalender'[%Date], MAX('Kalender'[%Date]), DESC)
    ),
    FILTER(
       Sachposten, Sachposten[Category II ] = "Current Liabilities" )
    )
)
 
As of right now, doing this returns the incorrect values

@arichard19 , Try like

Amount New = CALCULATE(
SUM('Sachposten'[Amount]),
FILTER(
Sachposten, Sachposten[Category II ] = "Current Liabilities" )
)

Amount running total in %Date =
CALCULATE(
[Amount New],
FILTER(
ALLSELECTED('Kalender'[%Date]),
ISONORAFTER('Kalender'[%Date], MAX('Kalender'[%Date]), DESC)
)
) 

 

or

Amount running total in %Date =
CALCULATE(
    SUM('Sachposten'[Amount]),
    FILTER(
        ALLSELECTED('Kalender'[%Date]),
        ISONORAFTER('Kalender'[%Date], MAX('Kalender'[%Date]), DESC)
    ),
       Sachposten, Sachposten[Category II ] = "Current Liabilities" )

Hi @arichard19 ,

 

Try :

Amount running total in %Date =
IF(MAX(Sachposten[Category II ]) = "Current Liabilities",
CALCULATE(
    SUM('Sachposten'[Amount]),
    FILTER(
        ALLSELECTED('Kalender'[%Date]),
        ISONORAFTER('Kalender'[%Date], MAX('Kalender'[%Date]), DESC)
    )
    )
)

 

Best Regards,
Liang
