    I ended up coming up with a solution for this. It doesn't maintain relationships but it works. 

     

    Totals Table = 
UNION(
    SUMMARIZE(Sheet4,"Cost",SUM(Sheet4[January 2020]),"Month","January 2020"),
    SUMMARIZE(Sheet4, "Cost", SUM(Sheet4[February 2020]), "Month", "February 2020"),
    SUMMARIZE(Sheet4,"Cost",SUM(Sheet4[March 2020]),"Month","March 2020"),
    SUMMARIZE(Sheet4, "Cost", SUM(Sheet4[April 2020]), "Month", "April 2020"),
    SUMMARIZE(Sheet4,"Cost",SUM(Sheet4[May 2020]),"Month","May 2020"),
    SUMMARIZE(Sheet4, "Cost", SUM(Sheet4[June 2020]), "Month", "June 2020"),
    SUMMARIZE(Sheet4,"Cost",SUM(Sheet4[July 2020]),"Month","July 2020"),
    SUMMARIZE(Sheet4, "Cost", SUM(Sheet4[August 2020]), "Month", "August 2020"),
    SUMMARIZE(Sheet4,"Cost",SUM(Sheet4[September 2020]),"Month","September 2020"),
    SUMMARIZE(Sheet4, "Cost", SUM(Sheet4[October 2020]), "Month", "October 2020"),
    SUMMARIZE(Sheet4,"Cost",SUM(Sheet4[November 2020]),"Month","November 2020"),
    SUMMARIZE(Sheet4, "Cost", SUM(Sheet4[December 2020]), "Month", "December 2020"))

Hi  slauer12 ， 

In  my sample, there is no calculated column in it, I use M code to create new column, so you don't need to insert data manually, you could copy the M code from Advanced Editor , and use this in your report.

Oh I see. I overlooked this. Do you know of a tutorial where I can learn how to do this? I don't completely understand what the source line means and how to replicate it for my use. I understand the rest of the code but not sure where the json document is and how to figure out the long line for file.
