Hi
I have a table with the following data:
Hours Serial Number Failures
20 A 0
15 B 0
40 A 1
30 A 0
50 A 1
How do I create a summary table that lists the total hours for A until the first failure and hours after. If there aren't any failures then, report the total hours in for that serial number. In the above example, I would need a table that shows the following:
Serial Number Total Hours
A 60
A 80
B 15

Hi @Anonymous
Try this Power Query /M solution

let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjJQ0lFyBGIDpVidaCVDUyDTCc41gckagrnGqIpNkWRjAQ==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Hours = _t, #"Serial Number" = _t, Failures = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Hours", Int64.Type}, {"Serial Number", type text}, {"Failures", Int64.Type}}),
#"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Changed Type", "Index", 1, 1),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Index", "Custom", each let myindex=[Index] in let mylist=
List.Max(Table.SelectRows(#"Added Index",each [Index]<myindex and [Failures]=1)[Index])+1
in
if mylist=null then 1 else mylist),
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Added Custom", {"Serial Number", "Custom"}, {{"Sum", each List.Sum([Hours]), type number}}),
#"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Grouped Rows",{"Custom"})
in
#"Removed Columns"
