Can't use measure in DAX CALCULATE formula

Hey I'm trying to return a measure based on the below, I know I can replace "[Gross Sales Revenue]" with SUM([amount]) but there are filters in the "[Gross Sales Revenue]" I want taken into consideration, any ideas?
 
Do I have to add the filter from [Gross Sales Revnue] in this formula, I have posted both below;
 
New Customer Amount =
VAR CustomersList = VALUES('QBO General Ledger'[name])
RETURN CALCULATE([Gross Sales Revenue],
FILTER(CustomersList, CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('QBO General Ledger'), FILTER(ALLSELECTED(Dates),Dates[Date] < MIN(Dates[Date]))) = 0))
 
 
Gross Sales Revenue = CALCULATE('QBO General Ledger'[Amount Total1],FILTER('QBO General Ledger','QBO General Ledger'[Account Code (Frist Digit)] = "4"))
 
Thanks

Hi @magnifybi ,

 

Would you please try to use the following measure:

 

New Customer Amount =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( [amount] ),
    FILTER (
        'QBO General Ledger',
        'QBO General Ledger'[Account Code (Frist Digit)] = "4"
    ),
    CALCULATETABLE (
        VALUES ( 'QBO General Ledger'[name] ),
        FILTER (
            'QBO General Ledger',
            CALCULATE (
                COUNTROWS ( 'QBO General Ledger' ),
                FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( Dates ), Dates[Date] < MIN ( Dates[Date] ) )
            ) = 0
        )
    )
)
