Using Filter with a Calculate Function Based on a Condition

[newpbiuser01]

Hello,

Would anyone know if I can apply an if statement to whether or not the calculate function applies a filter? As an example, I'm trying to say, 

test =
VAR _Category =   SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table1'[VALUE] )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (  SUM ( 'Table2'[TOTAL SAVINGS] ),
        IF (  _Category <> "All",
            FILTER ( 'Table2', [CATEGORY] = _Category ),
            ALLSELECTED ( 'Table2'[CATEGORY] )
        )
    )

However, I get an error saying "A Function "FILTER" has been used in a True/False experssion that is used as a table filter expression. That is now allowed".

Is there a way to only use filter with a calculate function when a condition is met?

How about this formula below？

test =
    VAR _Category = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table1'[VALUE] )
    RETURN
    IF ( _Category <> "All",
        SUMX ( FILTER('Table2', 'Table2'[CATEGORY] = _Category), 'Table2'[TOTAL SAVINGS] ), 

        CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table2'[TOTAL SAVINGS] ), ALLSELECTED ( 'Table2'[CATEGORY] ))
    )
