Total as per category,Region,date

We need to calculate the total as per Category,Region and Date column and i need to add the same back as calulated column or measure back in the same dataset .How can i acheive it the Data set is like below format-

This data is further used further to create measures for diaplying in the line chart.and we have slicer named 

 

RegionCategoryValueDate
AsiaContinous1002023-04
AsiaContinous2002023-05
AsiaContinous3002023-06
AsiaDiscrete9002023-04
AsiaDiscrete10002023-05
AsiaDiscrete10002023-06
AsiaSparge202023-04

APACSparge502023-05
APACSparge1002023-06
APACContinous20002023-05
APACContinous30002023-06

 

Total should get appended in the dataset with the sum of values for Region-ASIA  and sum of all the categories-Continous,Discrete,cyanide

Desired output-

RegionCategoryValueDate
AsiaContinous1002023-04
AsiaContinous2002023-05

First, you need to group your raw dataset in Power Query by following these steps:

1.Copy the original table

Table 2 = 
VAR _table1 = SUMMARIZE('Table (2)','Table (2)'[Region],'Table (2)'[Total],'Table (2)'[Date],"category","Total"
)
RETURN UNION('Table',SUMMARIZE(_table1,'Table (2)'[Region],[category],'Table (2)'[Total],'Table (2)'[Date]))

Here are the results:

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

In DAX you can,

CALCULATE (
    SUM ( tbl[value] ),
    ALLEXCEPT ( tbl, tbl[region], tbl[category], tbl[date] )
)

 

but if the summary needs to be appended to another query, use the Group by feature in M
