Reference a table's text field in VAR for T/F Return Calc

[DataUsurper]

Hello All o/

Am attempting to create a SUMX measure when a particular table field is from a certain source. Below is where I'm currently at but am uncertain how to reference that field, or if this is the most efficient way to create this sumx measure.

WROR.Item_Total = 
VAR TEAMSource = IF(tbl_Orders_LineItemDetails[SOURCE]="TEAMUK",TRUE,FALSE)
VAR TRUECALC = SUMX(tbl_Orders_LineItemDetails,(tbl_Orders_LineItemDetails[QTY]-tbl_Orders_LineItemDetails[QTYSUB])*tbl_Orders_LineItemDetails[Actual_Price.Disc])*1.5
VAR FALSECALC = SUMX(tbl_Orders_LineItemDetails,tbl_Orders_LineItemDetails[QTY]*tbl_Orders_LineItemDetails[Actual_Price.Disc])
RETURN IF(TEAMSource=TRUE,TRUECALC,FALSECALC)

Thanks for the help

@DataUsurper thanks for sharing pbix but it doesn't help as I don;t know what you are trying to achieve. You need to provide explanation based on your dataset what you are looking to achieve.

Unfortunately I don't have any magic wand to provide the solution without knowing what you need help with 🙂

It's rather quite simple

This would be an easy calcualted column, much like in excel

IF(Source="A", Calc1,Calc2)

As in the image I provided, along with the code, when I insert the logic check for source it says it isn't relatable. Did you view the image or look at the code I provided?

WROR.Item_Total = 
VAR TEAMSource = IF(SELECTEDVALUE(tbl_Orders_LineItemDetails[SOURCE],"Neg")="TEAMUK",TRUE,FALSE)
VAR TRUECALC = SUMX(tbl_Orders_LineItemDetails,(tbl_Orders_LineItemDetails[ITEMTOTAL])*1.5)
VAR FALSECALC = SUMX(tbl_Orders_LineItemDetails,(tbl_Orders_LineItemDetails[ITEMTOTAL])*1)
RETURN IF(TEAMSource=TRUE,TRUECALC,FALSECALC)

That seems to have done it.
