I need to be able to sequence my data using the current sequence - but totaling the "QuantityToBuild" column by grouping by the "Component" Column.
So in otherwords I would need sequence 1 and 2 to be labeled as "1", Component "2128", and the QuantityToBuild "336". The go to sequence "2", Component "631", QuantityToBuild "224", and so on..
Here is my data currently as is:
| Sequence | ItemNumber | Component | QuantityToBuild | Date |
| 1 | 178 | 2128 | 224 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 2 | 179 | 2128 | 112 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 3 | 2270 | 631 | 224 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 4 | 182 | 2128 | 56 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 5 | 183 | 2128 | 56 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 6 | 2271 | 631 | 224 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 7 | 8485 | 8489 | 112 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 8 | 8484 | 8489 | 504 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 9 | 181 | 2128 | 168 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 10 | 3108 | 924 | 90 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 11 | 6413 | 9452 | 56 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 12 | 3107 | 924 | 90 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 13 | 6412 | 9452 | 56 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 14 | 3109 | 924 | 30 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
Here is how I would hope my data would look:
| Sequence | Component | QuantityToBuild | Date |
| 1 | 2128 | 336 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 2 | 631 | 224 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 3 | 2128 | 112 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 4 | 631 | 224 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 5 | 8489 | 616 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 6 | 2128 | 168 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 7 | 924 | 90 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 8 | 9452 | 56 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 9 | 924 | 90 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 10 | 9452 | 56 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
| 11 | 924 | 30 | 5/11/2020 0:00 |
Seems like you want to do a Group By on Component in Power Query. Then add a new Index column starting from 1.
