Trying to get the total sum correct based on previous given condition

Hi All!

I'm pretty new to DAX code and to Power BI in general, I'm facing an issue right now where I can't get the total sum correct based on previous given condition:

Basically what I'm trying to do is to get only the IF Fines if the are above the 98% column (IF%) but instead I'm getting the total sum as it was ignoring my previous condition as you can see in above picture, here's the formula:

IF Fines DAX = if([IF %] > .98, 0,
CALCULATE(
[Sum of if fines],
ALLEXCEPT(' Date', 'Date'[Month Year])))

I tried some work-arounds but without any luck, does anyone know how I can get the correct total sum for the IF Fines column?

Also, this is a DirectQuery Model so take that in mind as I'm limited to create calculated columns

@AleGuty04,

 

Try this measure:

 

IF Fines DAX =
SUMX (
    VALUES ( YourTableName[customer_vendor_num] ),
    IF ( [IF %] <= .98, [Sum of if fines] )
)

 

Here's an article on totals:
