Add column of sum

Hi all,

 

It seems pretty basic, but I cant seem to figure it our. I have a table sorted by month with the salary costs and a column per office (so Column A is month, Column B New York, Column C Washington. No I want to add a column D for the total salary Costs. Each Column is uploaded in a different dataset.  Any easy way to do this?

@Reimer , You can sum that up and analyze across common dimension

Total Salary = Sum(Table1[ColumnA])+Sum(Table2[ColumnB])+Sum(Table3[ColumnC])+Sum(Table4[Columnd])

 

Or merge the data sources
