Remove rows from data
Hi Anonymous ,
We can use two ways to meet your requirement. One is in Power Query Editor, another is to create a calculate table.
1. In Power Query Editor, we can create a conditional column. The “Total” is 0, others are 1.
2. Then we filter out the value of 0 in custom column.
3. At last we delete the custom column, the result like this,
Or we can create a calculate table using DAX.
Table 2 = SUMMARIZE(FILTER('Table (2)','Table (2)'[ColB]<>"Total"),'Table (2)'[ColA],'Table (2)'[ColB],'Table (2)'[ColC])If them don’t meet your requirement, could you please show the exact expected result based on the table that you have shared?
BTW, pbix as attached.

Hi sturlaws ,
I am aware of "Remove Rows" in Power Query Editor, however there is no option to remove selected rows or specific rows. My data is huge and has multiple rows containing "Total".
Kindly let me know if I am missing something here.

sorry, obviously did not manage to include a screenshot:
I had earlier tried using this workaround sturlaws, but, this wouldn't work since the column where"Total" appears could be text/date/location and due to presence of "Total" in its values, I am unable to change the datatye of these columns to date. It will always consider it as a text unless we remove the rows containg total.
Your original post did not include that piece of pertinent information 😀
So I altered your sample data a little:
If you click on the Source-step you get the original table. Now filter out the 'Total'-rows and you get this:
works!!! thanks man!!
