Slicer that works using Summed Measure

[WillTickel]

I'm building a dashboard to analysis on some suppliers & SKUs, but I want my slicer to aggregate all the line level SKUs to one supplier, so that when I apply the slicer I'm chopping out suppliers which are below a certain revenue, rather than individual SKU lines that are below a certain SKU level.

E.g. (Currently)

Supplier      SKU#     Revenue
Supplier 1 - SKU 1 -$70,000 

Supplier 1 - SKU 2 - $400,000

Supplier 1 - SKU 3 - $100,000

If I wanted to only look at Supplier's above $500k revenue then I'd set the slicer to $500k and over, but as the current columns are set up at SKU/Product level, this supplier would get missed and bet eliminated from whatever graph or table I had on my dashboard.

Is there some way of creating a slicer that aggregates the revenue by supplier?

@WillTickel,

You may use the following measure. It takes advantage of Show Categories With No Data.

Measure =
VAR rMin =
    MIN ( Table2[Revenue] )
VAR r =
    SUM ( Table1[Revenue] )
RETURN
    IF ( r >= rMin, r )

Hi @WillTickel,

Share some data and show the expected result.

Have a look at the technique here:

This is the typical trick when you want to use a measure some place it generally can't be used, like a slicer.
