Creating a new table which sums values of another table

Hello,

I'd like to create a new table which contains data from another table.

Here is what my original table looks like:

 

DateCategorySub-categoryAmount
July 2019A110
July 2019A215
July 2019B110
July 2019B220
August 2019A110
August 2019A220
August 2019A330
August 2019B115
August 2019B210

 

What I'm looking to get in a new table is this:

 

CategoryDateAmount
AJuly 201925
BJuly 201930
AAugust 201960
BAugust 201925

 

So basically it is a sum of the amount per category and per month.

How can I achieve this ?

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

You could try creating a new table under the modeling tab and use something like the code below:

NewTable =
SUMMARIZE( 'Table',
                         'Table'[Date], 'Table'[Category],
                                    "Amount", SUM('Table'[Amount] )
 )
