    Hi Anonymous,

    After research, your [in-nk], [in-nm] column come from another table which relate to your 'dairy' table indirectly. You need to transfer the value to the sample or one table related directly. I create calculated columns [nk1], [nm1], [nk2], [nm2], then use SUMMARIZE to create a new table to get expected result.



    Please download the file for more details.

Hi Anonymous,

I assume your table name as 'Table1'. You can create a new table by clicking "New Table" under Modeling on Home page, type the formula below. 

New Table =
SUMMARIZE (
    Table1,
    Table1[ddiD],
    "in-nm", SUM ( Table[in-nm] ),
    "in-nk", SUM ( Table[in-nk] )
)


For another option, you can also group by ddiD in Query Editor(button highlighted in red line) as follows, click Advanced->sum of  in-nm and in-nk group by [ddiD] column.



If you use option1, you will get a new table to display the result. The resouce table will be changed as the expected result if you use option2.

Best Regards,
Angelia

    Hi v-huizhn-msft, thank you for the response. Option 1 is probably better as the 2 results are in 2 different tables. Here is the code I entered and the result

     

    New Table =
    SUMMARIZE (
    diary,
    diary[ddiD],
    "in-nm", SUM ( 'inv-rem'[in-nm] ),
    "in-nk", SUM ( 'inv-rem'[in-nk] )
    )

     

     

     

    As you can see it is giving the overall total not just to the sum for that DDID.

     

    thanks
