How to obtain the sum of a column in Power Query

Dear All,

I have the following table in Power Query.

 

CodeValue
1252500
9992400
3561700
2243600
2253800

 

I need to create a new column in Power Query which gives back the total of column Value for each row.

Desired table:

CodeValueValute Total
125250014000
999240014000
356170014000
224360014000
225380014000

 

I know that I can manage this through a calculated column but I need it to be in Power Query..

thanks a lot

@gianmarco add a new column in PQ using the following M code
