SUM a column with one filter removed

Hi. I have been trying to solve my problem, which should in theory be simple, but not quite sure why all that I have tried cannot resolve it.

 

I have the following tables:

Accounts:

AccountID Account Name
1000 Account A
1001 Account B
1002 Account C
1003 Account D

 

Transactions - Group 1

Account SecID Date Amount
1002 101 01-Jan-22 100
1002 102 16-Jan-22 200
1003 103 31-Jan-22 -150

 

Transactions - Group 2

Account SecID Date Amount
1000 ABC 01-Jan-22 400
1000 ABC 01-Jan-22 100
1000 PQR 16-Jan-22 200
1001 XYZ 31-Jan-22 50

 

Securities

SecID SecName
ABC ABCName
PQR PQRName
XYZ XYZName
101 101Name
102 102Name
103 103Name

 

I am looking to create a pivot table as follows. Total would be a measure which sums up all amounts in the account (for all securities) if security name = ABC. All other filters, including account name, dates etc. are to be retained.

 

Account Name Security Name Amount Total
Account A ABC 500 700
Account A PQR 200  
Account B XYZ 50  
Account C 101 100  
Account C 102 200  
Account D 103 -150  

 

I have tried various solutions using all and allselected, but either it ignores filter contexts which should remain or it doesn't remove the security filter when calculating total for each row.

 

Thanks!

Hi @khizerk 
Here is a sample fil with the solution https://we.tl/t-UCxwU8Fjs9

Total = 
VAR T1 = SUMMARIZE ( Transactions1, Accounts[Account Name], Securities[SecID] )
VAr T2 = SUMMARIZE ( Transactions2, Accounts[Account Name], Securities[SecID] )
VAR T3 = UNION ( T1, T2 )
VAR T4 = FILTER ( T3, [SecID] = "ABC" )
VAR T5 = DISTINCT ( SELECTCOLUMNS ( T4, "@AcountName", [Account Name] ) )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        [Amount],
        Accounts[Account Name] IN T5,
        REMOVEFILTERS ( Securities )
    )

Thanks! This worked well!

 

I think I understand how the code works, but for clarity can you please explain this piece?

VAR T5 = DISTINCT ( SELECTCOLUMNS ( T4, "@AcountName", [Account Name] ) )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        [Amount],
        Accounts[Account Name] IN T5,
        REMOVEFILTERS ( Securities )

@khizerk , If you used a joined table filter, it will continue to filter display value. Use an independent table

Thanks Amit. I'm not sure how an independent table will help since that would mean that I will have to reapply all the filters again, except the one I need removed. Other filters can change depending on the layout of the pivot table used by the user.
