DAX Measure Error when a column is blank empty data points

Hi Experts

 

i am trying to sum where the following columns are blank only and either True or false - my conditions are:

1. So PostingDate = blank

2. InvoiceChecked = true (text)

3. InvoiceNumber = blank

the below is returning back blank when i clearly know i have values in [SOOrderValue]

Checked Finance = CALCULATE(SUM(FACT_NEWBI_NewSalesDashboard[SOOrderValue]),FILTER(FACT_NEWBI_NewSalesDashboard,FACT_NEWBI_NewSalesDashboard[SOPostingDate] = BLANK() && FACT_NEWBI_NewSalesDashboard[InvoiceNumber] = BLANK() && FACT_NEWBI_NewSalesDashboard[InvoiceChecked] = True))

@Anonymous  You need to add "" while using True as a text.

Checked Finance = CALCULATE(SUM(FACT_NEWBI_NewSalesDashboard[SOOrderValue]),FILTER(FACT_NEWBI_NewSalesDashboard,FACT_NEWBI_NewSalesDashboard[SOPostingDate] = BLANK() && FACT_NEWBI_NewSalesDashboard[InvoiceNumber] = BLANK() && FACT_NEWBI_NewSalesDashboard[InvoiceChecked] = "True"))

@Anonymous  Try using "True()". 

Checked Finance = CALCULATE(SUM(FACT_NEWBI_NewSalesDashboard[SOOrderValue]),FILTER(FACT_NEWBI_NewSalesDashboard,FACT_NEWBI_NewSalesDashboard[SOPostingDate] = BLANK() && FACT_NEWBI_NewSalesDashboard[InvoiceNumber] = BLANK() && FACT_NEWBI_NewSalesDashboard[InvoiceChecked] = True()))

@Anonymous  You need to check the data type of SOOrderValue column. It should be Numeric column. I am attaching the PBIX file for your reference please check the Power Query how I converted that column into numeric due to currency symbol.
