PowerQuery / M - Calculate total of multiple values

 

I have two tables,

Table A (list_backup) has multiple entries for each key, table B (list) has single entries for the key.

Table A has a column 'called_count' that I would like to sum and add to a column in table B, per key

 

In the example below I need to calculate the column highlighted in red, totalCall.

I can do this in DAX but I need to use TotalCall on an X axis and so need to calculate it in my query instead.

 

Can anyone help, I thought I'd found a solution here but I'm struggling to understand how to modify it to apply to my data.

    You can open Power Query Editor and duplicate your table. 

     

    Perform Group By on second table in Power Query Editor itself and you will have two tables with desired result.

    Hi MrPatrick ,

     

    First, copy and paste the list_backup table;

    Second, use "Group By" feature in the list_backup(2) table

     

    Best regards,
