putting Column 1 + Column 2 together in one column

Hi! 
I am trying to go from this:

Payment 1Amount 1Payment 2Amount 2
Jan 110Feb 120
Jan 215Feb 2

25

 

to this:

PaymentAmount
Jan 110
Feb 120
Jan 215
Feb 225

 

and I can't do this in the query editor because these are all custom columns added in the Tabular Data View.

 

Thank you!

Hi,

I assume you want to create a new table by using DAX formula.

Please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.

It is for creating a new table.

New Table = 
VAR _tableone =
    SELECTCOLUMNS (
        Source,
        "@Payment", Source[Payment 1],
        "@Amount", Source[Amount 1]
    )
VAR _tabletwo =
    SELECTCOLUMNS (
        Source,
        "@Payment", Source[Payment 2],
        "@Amount", Source[Amount 2]
    )
RETURN
    UNION ( _tableone, _tabletwo )
