@Tooba_kazmi , Power query merge

Or copy a column from one table to another

refer 4 ways (related, relatedtable, lookupvalue, sumx/minx/maxx with filter) to copy data from one table to another

But I have multiple calculated columns in two different tables that i am trying to join in a new table. Since they are calculated columns there are not being shown in power query. 

 

I've tried to get the columns from one table into a new one using Summarize function but it doesn't give the desired result. 

PoliciesfromPriceEstimate = SUMMARIZE(FILTER('Price Estimates','Price Estimates'[Policy] <> Blank()),'Price Estimates'[Week Ending],'Price Estimates'[Policy],'Price Estimates'[Branch], 'Price Estimates'[LAM],'Price Estimates'[All States]). 
 
All the above cols are calculated.  Once I have the desired result,i can use Union to append them but how to filter out these columns into new ones?

Hi @Tooba_kazmi ,

 

Based on your description, I have created a simple sample:

Please try:

Table 2 =
ADDCOLUMNS (
    'Table',
    "V22",
        CALCULATE (
            SUM ( 'Table (2)'[V22] ),
            FILTER ( 'Table (2)', [ID] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[ID] ) )
        ),
    "V3",
        CALCULATE (
            SUM ( 'Table (3)'[V3] ),
            FILTER ( 'Table (3)', [ID] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[ID] ) )
        )
)

Final output:
