If statement in calculate Measure

Hi, looking for some help with a measure. I have a measure that sums a Value based on criteria filters in the Calculate statement.  I would like the measure to calculate differently (to drop one of the criteria filters) based on one of the page slicers selection. The syntax that works fine is:

FH_VALUE = Calculate(sum(Funnel[Value]),Funnel[HalfInclusion]=1,Funnel[Forecast]="Commit",'Product'[System]="Sample",Funnel[HubSpoke]="No") 

 

There is a slicer on the page for [Segment]. In case Segment="EA", then I want the measure to drop the [System] filter:

Calculate(sum(Funnel[Value]),Funnel[HalfInclusion]=1,Funnel[Forecast]="Commit",Funnel[HubSpoke]="No") 

 

However, I can't use a normal IF statement because the [Segment] occurs as a column and is not aggregated. 

Thanks in advance for any help or better ideas you may have!

Hi @lmondavi

 

Does something like this help?

 

FH_VALUE = 

VAR IsEASelected = IF(ISFILTERED('Product'[Segment]) && MAX('Product'[Segment]) = "EA" , True,False)
VAR Calc1 = Calculate(SUM(Funnel[Value]),Funnel[HalfInclusion]=1,Funnel[Forecast]="Commit",'Product'[System]="Sample",Funnel[HubSpoke]="No")
VAR Calc2 = Calculate(SUM(Funnel[Value]),Funnel[HalfInclusion]=1,Funnel[Forecast]="Commit",Funnel[HubSpoke]="No")
RETURN IF(IsEASelected,Calc1,Calc2)

How would I expand this to more than just two values? It seems that with the MAX and RETURNIF statements that you would be confined to using only two variables. 

Thank you, worked like a charm!!!
