    Quick note on terminology first: in Power Query "Merge" means a join (it adds columns), whereas what you want here is to stack the rows from several tables into one - that's "Append" (Power Query) or UNION (DAX).

     

    - If these summaries are Power Query queries: Home > Append Queries > Append Queries as New, then pick the tables. They share the same Job/Task columns, so you get one stacked table.

    - If they are DAX calculated tables (created with SUMMARIZE): Combined = UNION(Summary1, Summary2, Summary3). UNION matches columns by position (so keep the same column order), takes the column names from the first table, and keeps duplicate rows - wrap it in DISTINCT() if you want to remove duplicates.

    - If all three summaries come from the same base table, the cleanest option is to skip the intermediate tables and do a single SUMMARIZE/GROUPBY over the base table (or just drop Job and Task into one visual).

     

    Hope that helps!

    If these are separate SUMMARIZE results stored as variables or separate tables, you can combine them using UNION. Please try the logic below:

    Combined Table =
    VAR _Table1 =
        SUMMARIZE ( Source1, Source1[Job], Source1[Task] )
    VAR _Table2 =
        SUMMARIZE ( Source2, Source2[Job], Source2[Task] )
    VAR _Table3 =
        SUMMARIZE ( Source3, Source3[Job], Source3[Task] )
    RETURN
        UNION ( _Table1, _Table2, _Table3 )

     

    If you need this as a physical table (not a measure), use it inside a Calculated Table definition. If you are working in Power Query instead of DAX, use Table.Combine:

    = Table.Combine({Table1, Table2, Table3})

    Hi AllanBerces,

     

    If you have the table with the same number of columns you can use the union to merge them all (as same your expected O/P) 

     
    For existing tables.
    Merged Table =
    UNION (
    SELECTCOLUMNS ( Table1, "Job", Table1[Job], "Task", Table1[Task] ),
    SELECTCOLUMNS ( Table2, "Job", Table2[Job], "Task", Table2[Task] ),
    SELECTCOLUMNS ( Table3, "Job", Table3[Job], "Task", Table3[Task] )
    )

     

     

    If you want to do the same in the power query editor you can use query something like, Assuming tables are already created.

    let
        Combined =
            Table.Combine({Table1, Table2, Table3})
    in
        Combined


    Hope this is the asnwer to your question. Please consdier this as an accepted solution or give some kudos.
