Beast mode adding two columns with conditions

Hello Dojo,
I'm having trouble adding two columns with in a conditional case. The following works fine:
SUM(`paid_total`) + SUM(`booked_total`)
But then when I try to add any sort of condition, it fails: "An issue has occurred during processing. We are unable to complete the request at this time."
case when `payment_number` >= 1 then SUM(`paid_total`) + SUM(`booked_total`) else 0 end
I've tried wrapping the whole statement in a SUM as it suggests to do in the docs, but that also doesn't work.
SUM( case when `payment_number` >= 1 then SUM(`paid_total`) + SUM(`booked_total`) else 0 end )
Any thoughts here? I've exhausted every other help page on this topic I could find in the Dojo, to no avail.

CASE WHEN `payment_number` > 0 THEN SUM(SUM(`paid_total`) + SUM(`booked_total`)) ELSE 0 END

Domo cannot apply a CASE statement AFTER the aggregate.
If you need to apply a CASE statement on the aggregate, then you have to pre-aggreagte the data in ETL or a Dataset View.
(you could then JOIN the preaggregated data back onto the transactions to retain the granular detail.
