Need help with a formula

I need to create a formula that summarize numbers in table based on column text i decide.

 

This is my table

I want it to do this:

 

accountNumber = 5520 summarize "amountInBaseCurrency"

 

This should take all 5520 cells in "accountNumber" and summarize the value in "amountInBaseCurrency"

Any idea how i can do that?

The output would be sum of all values in "amountInBaseCurrency", but only those that have 5520 in "accountNumber" 

 

All help is appreciated.

Thanks

    Hi, let's see if this works:
    Calculate(sum('Table'[amountInBaseCurrency]),FILTER('Table', 'Table'[accountNumber] = "5520"))

  • Anonymous I hope it will work with "account number in normal slicer" and "account balance" in card visual.

    I set them both to whole numbers as the formatting

    It is very strange i think. As the formula looks correct to me.

    I just did some more testing, and it seems like it works if i set "accountNumber" to format as TEXT - but that does not look logically correct to me, as account number is a "number"?

     

    Is there a way i can format it in the function, without having to format the whole table?
