Sum based on three distinct

Hi!


I have a set of data that cannot be changed and it looks like vizualized below. I want to based on distinct value of the column "Project", the distinct value of the column "Department" and as well as a distinct value of the column "Calculation" to sum the values in column "Values".

 

I created this table by entering 

Avdelning =
DISTINCT(SELECTCOLUMNS(Economy;"Project";Economy[Project];"Department";Economy[Department];"Calculation";Economy[Calculation]))

Could somebody help me?

It does not really help. 

 

I guess you will be needing the SUMMARIZECOLUMNS-function:

Avdelning =
SUMMARIZECOLUMNS (
    Economy[Project];
    Economy[Department];
    "Something"; SUM ( Economy[Whatever] )
)

Hi!


Sorry, I realized it wasn't the best description. 

I want something like SUMIFS in excel. I want to sum the costs based on project, department and calculation.

Is this more clear?

It does not really help. 

 

I guess you will be needing the SUMMARIZECOLUMNS-function:

Avdelning =
SUMMARIZECOLUMNS (
    Economy[Project];
    Economy[Department];
    "Something"; SUM ( Economy[Whatever] )
)
