How to SUM different columns based on dates in different columns

Hello,

 

I have a table with two date columns and two columns of values.

Now the intention is to add up all values ​​per date.

So look up the dates in dateIn and DateOut and then add the values from work1 and work2 together.

then this should be the result:

I found a solution.

 

i added a column tot sum work1:

totalwork1= List.Sum(Table.SelectRows (Tabel1, (temp) => temp[DateIn] = [Date])[Work1])

and a column tot sum work2:

totalwork1= List.Sum(Table.SelectRows (Tabel1, (temp) => temp[DateIn] = [Date])[Work2])

after that i added another column: total = totalwork1 + totalwork2

 

this is the result:
