How to remove a column based on duplicates and summaries values in other columns

Hi,

 

Sorry if the title sounds weird. I tried to make it understandable. I am still a beginner at power bi - sorry if this is a stupid question... 🙂

I have the below table:

I want to remove "Area" and summaries alle items values so I get a total of books/shoes/icecream on the dates. 

Ie:

Date                   Item              Value

01-01-2019        Books                   8

01-01-2019        Shoes                  88

etc...

 

Preferably I would like to do this in the query editor.

 

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much.
