How to sum values on a Unique ID and add to ID Table

I have Table 1 (which lists Group sizes and which ID that group belongs to).

IDGroupSize
110
15
120
225
23

I'd like to sum groupsize by ID and insert the result to Table 2 (the ID table) like so:

IDTotalGroupSize
135
228

I have a 1 - * relationship from Table 2 -> Table 1.

Hi @nft25 ,

 

Try this for a new table:

 

Table 2 = SUMMARIZE('Table'; 'Table'[ID]; "TotalGroupSize"; SUM('Table'[GroupSize]))

Hi @nft25 

If the relationship is through ID, you can create a calculated column in Table2 as:

TotalGroupSize = SUM(Table1[GroupSize])

Please mark the question solved when done and consider giving kudos if posts are helpful.

@AlB This summed every group in Table 1 together irrespective of ID.

Hi @nft25 

You need a calculate to trigger context transition:

TotalGroupSize = CALCULATE(SUM(Table1[GroupSize]))
