How do I use a slicer for columns with summarized data?

Hello!

 

I have a matrix with three columns:

  • Column 1 = two values of identifying data (for example, Name and Work Location).
  • Column 2 = sum of sales generated (summarized by name, then broken down by work location)
  • Column 3 = sum of clients (summarized by name, then broken down by work location)

I want to create a slicer that looks at the sum of column 2 (highlighted yellow in the picture) for those who have a specific $ amount or higher - i.e. over 150,000.  Previous slicers and measures I have created will only pull the values by work location over the $ amount, but I need it to reference the SUM by name and keep the work location information.  Can someone help point me in the right direction?

Hi, @MZimmer1 

Based on your information, I create a sample table:

Use DAX to create a measure that calculates the total sales for each name across all work locations:

Total Sales per Name = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Sales]), ALLEXCEPT('Table', 'Table'[Name]))

 

Here is my preview:
