Needing a DAX Measure for the Minimum Value of All the Category Totals

I need to create a measure that shows the the value of the smallest category total.  I have included a small dataset, but here is a text version of what I need:

 

DepartmentPaid $ (Measure that sums the paid amounts)
Blue-25
Green40
Purple24
Red74

 

I need a measure that shows the minimum departmental [Paid $], in this case -25.  I need the measure to use any other filters already on the report.  I'm stumped.  

 

Thank you in advance!

if you have filters you need to keep just swap all with allexcept and fill the slicers you need 

 

Min = CALCULATE(MIN('Table'[Paid]),ALL('Table'))

OR

min = MINX(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Paid])

 

 

@eliasayyy Thank you for your swift reply.  This is finding the minimum value of the column, not the minimum value of the measure.  How can I find the minimum measure total?

hello what filters do you have on ? 


@eliasayyy I could have other filters on such as Person or Region, as an example.  I just want the measure to respect other filters if they are present.  I need it to calculate the [Paid $] measure first by department, and then return to me the smallest category aggregation [Paid $].

then use 

min = CALCULATE(MIN('Table'[Paid]), ALLEXCEPT('Table',[Region],[person]))

OR

min = MINX(ALLEXCEPT('Table',[Region],[person]),'Table'[Paid])
