Grouping/summing rows

Hi, I hope someone can help: I have a simple table like this:

table.jpg

 

I need to make another table which groups/sums these rows together into new names (new1=A+B, new2=C, new3=D+E+F), like this:
table2.jpg
I tried the 'Group' function but I couldn't make it work.

How can this be done?

Thank you very much

Hi @Anonymous 

You may add a column with IF Function.Then drag them to table visual to get the table.

Column = 
IF (
    Table1[categories] IN { "A", "B" },
    "new1",
    IF ( Table1[categories] IN { "D", "E", "F" }, "new3", "new2" )
)

Or create the table with SUMMARIZE Function.

Table = SUMMARIZE(Table1,Table1[Column],"Open",SUM(Table1[Open]),"Engaged",SUM(Table1[Engaged]),"Highly",SUM(Table1[Highly]))

when you load the data (get data), go to Add Column\condtional column.  You should be able to build what you want there as an extra column
