Hi @JSIQUEI-YYC-ENB ,

 

I suggest you to try code as below to create a custom column.

let _list = 
Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type",each [Date]>=#date(2021, 01, 01) and [Date]<= #date(2021, 12, 31))[Value]
in
List.Sum(_list)

Result is as below.

@JSIQUEI-YYC-ENB sum by what columns or just a plain sum? What does your data look like? Do you want to repeat the sum for each row?
