    Hi, Try with this

     

    MyTable2 =
SUMMARIZE (
    FILTER ( Table1; Table1[Age] < 18 );
    Table1[Name];
    Table1[Date].[Month];
    "Department A Total"; CALCULATE ( COUNT ( Table1[Name] ); Table1[Department] = "A" );
    "Department B Total"; CALCULATE ( COUNT ( Table1[Name] ); Table1[Department] = "B" )
)

    Regards
