Trying to return the Allocated Cost Per OrderID column because the value in the "Cost" column is the total final cost for the Tracking Number. Essentially you divide the Cost value by however many unique orderID's there are per tracking number. Seems simple but I cant figure it out.
| Tracking Number | OrderID | Cost | Allocated Cost Per OrderID |
| 12345678909 | 1001 | 30.5 | 15.25 |
| 12345678909 | 1002 | 30.5 | 15.25 |
| 987654324 | 1003 | 80 | 20 |
| 987654324 | 1004 | 80 | 20 |
| 987654324 | 1005 | 80 | 20 |
| 987654324 | 1006 | 80 | 20 |
| 2.34873E+12 | 1007 | 18 | 18 |

@awitt you can add a column using following expression:
Allocated Cost per order id =
VAR __numberofOrders = CALCULATE ( COUNTROWS ( YourTable ), ALLEXCEPT ( YourTable, YourTable[TrackingNumber] ) )
RETURN
DIVIDE ( YourTable[Cost], __numberofOrders )
