Hi @Anonymous ,

 

According to your description, here are my steps you can follow as a solution.

(1)Select to display the sales column in sum form.

(2) Then the result is as follows.

(3) Or we can create a measure.

SUM OF SALES = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[SALES]),ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[STATE],'Table'[YEAR]))

(4) Then the result is as follows.

If the above one can't help you get the desired result, please provide some sample data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples. It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. Thank you.
