Hello everyone! i have the following table
| Employment column 1 | Employment column 2 | Type of work |
| E11 | E33 | A |
| E22 | E22 | B |
| E33 | E22 | A |
| E22 | E11 | A |
| E11 | E33 | B |
I need to add the results of E11 that have a job of type A in both columns and have the following result
| A | B | sum | |
| E11 | 2 | 1 | 3 |
| E22 | 2 | 2 | 4 |
| E33 | 2 | 1 | 3 |

HI,
I am not sure if I understood your question correctly, but please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.
It is for creating a new table.
New Table =
VAR _newtable =
ADDCOLUMNS (
DISTINCT ( 'Table'[Employment column 1] ),
"@A",
CALCULATE (
COUNTROWS ( DISTINCT ( 'Table'[Type of work] ) ),
'Table'[Type of work] = "A"
)
+ COUNTROWS (
FILTER (
'Table',
'Table'[Employment column 2] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Employment column 1] )
&& 'Table'[Type of work] = "A"
)
),
"@B",
CALCULATE (
COUNTROWS ( DISTINCT ( 'Table'[Type of work] ) ),
'Table'[Type of work] = "B"
)
+ COUNTROWS (
FILTER (
'Table',
'Table'[Employment column 2] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Employment column 1] )
&& 'Table'[Type of work] = "B"
)
)
)
RETURN
ADDCOLUMNS ( _newtable, "@sum", [@A] + [@B] )
Based on your description, I created data to reproduce your scenario. The pbix file is attached in the end.
