Dax sum measure with a measure filter

Ps: I cannot use page level filters as I need to use the measure in a paginated report.

@Anonymous The reason why you are getting the wrong total is because valid  measure is getting calculated at the customer + date level, not at the customer level. To get correct total at the customer level, you need add a new measure:

 

Sum Customer - Valid = 
VAR __Table1 = 
ADDCOLUMNS ( 
    SUMMARIZE ( 
        MyTable, 
        MyTable[Customer] 
    ), 
    "@Valid", [Valid] 
)
RETURN
SUMX ( FILTER ( __Table1, [@Valid] = "Yes" ), [Sum Amount] )
