@Giada90 , You have to create measures for Sum of Sales and Sum of Cost. The field parameters on a column will be used for group by ( not summarize) in a visual

As @amitchandak suggested,you could also try to create measure:

Creating strings for splicing functions of measure: sales OR cost

sales OR cost = FORMAT([M_cost],"General Number")&" OR "&FORMAT([M_sales],"General Number")

M_cost = SUM('Table'[cost])

M_sales = SUM('Table'[sales])
