Hi Kristofferaabo,
To create a new table, in dax, you can use summarize(), selectcolumns(), addcolumns().
To achieve distinct values in column A oin the calculate table, you can use summarize function like pattern below:
calculate table = UNION ( SUMMARIZE ( old_table1, old_table1[column_need_to_be_distinct], "column1", SUM ( old_table1[column1] ) ), SUMMARIZE ( old_table2, old_table2[column_need_to_de_distinct], "column2", SUM ( old_table2[column2] ) ) )Also refer to DAX summarize here:https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/query-bi/dax/summarize-function-dax
