DAX Measure Ignoring one specific

Hey community!
I've been struggling with a measure that in theory shoulnd't be a problem. 
I have a measure called "DM Sold Hours" that I use for a table with data by Area and I want another one that use it but ignoring the subsidiary level.
For example this sample of the data, I want all subsidiaries from LAT to be equal to 100 (90+10)  and AS to be 50 (20+30)
I tried with ALL, SELECTEDVALUE, and FILTER functions inside CALCULATE but not sure it doesn't work.

Hi, @RubenSO 
try this measure:

New Output = 
var currrentZone = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Zone])
var _sum = SUMX(FILTER(ALL('Table'), 'Table'[Zone] = currrentZone), 'Table'[DM Sold Hours])

return _sum

Hi @RubenSO ,

 

According to your statement, I think your issue is that you want to keep filter in your measure. 

I think you can try ALLSELECTED() FUNCTION.

New Output =
VAR currrentZone =
    MAX ( 'Table'[Zone] )
VAR _sum =
    SUMX (
        FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Zone] = currrentZone ),
        'Table'[DM Sold Hours]
    )
RETURN
    _sum

Thanks for this formula!
Seems I'm facing another issue here, because my report has another filters by report level to excluded no current rows  like [customer actives], [Agent Name], [customer excluded] are the main ones. I tried to use ALLEXCEPT but doesn't seem to work because the ouput it's like a bigger number that the expected one.

Thank you!
The value was a little bit different but adjusted with CALCULATE and using ALLSELECTED did the trick!
