(=SUM(A3:A10)<=(0.7*D6)

This post which describes invalid value might make sense.
Are you trying to sum data only if it is less than or equal to 0.7*D6? If so, you should look at SUMIFS, to designate criterion for summing the range based on the criterion. https://help.smartsheet.com/function/sumifs
Also, you should be aware that Smartsheet does not refer to columns as letters like in Excel or GoogleSheets. You should use the column names and include brackets if the column title has white space or ends in a numeral.
Hi Abdulhameed,
I can see a couple of issues here:
If you're looking for a TRUE or FALSE condition to to decide whether a value should be included in the sum, then try this:
=SUMIF([Column Name]3:[Column Name]10, <= (0.7*[Other Column Name]6))
Kind regards,
