Creating a summary table without importing another source.
third_hicana no sorry, with first one I refered to the first code i gave you about the new table.
Create the Table Type with this code:
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45Wcs7PKylKTC7JL1LSUTJWitWJVgpILcpNzEvNK4GLhCUmJ+YlV0L4sQA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Type = _t, DUMMY = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Type", type text}})
in
#"Changed Type"then a new table with:
let
Source = Table,
#"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "DUMMY", each "3"),
#"Merged Queries" = Table.NestedJoin(#"Added Custom1", {"DUMMY"}, Type, {"DUMMY"}, "Type", JoinKind.LeftOuter),
#"Expanded Type" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Merged Queries", "Type", {"Type"}, {"Type.1"}),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Expanded Type", "Count", each if [Contract Type] = [Type.1] then 1 else 0),
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Added Custom", {"Start Date", "Type.1"}, {{"Count", each List.Sum([Count]), type number}})
in
#"Grouped Rows"BBF
let
Source = #"Resource List",
#"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "DUMMY", each "3"),
#"Merged Queries" = Table.NestedJoin(#"Added Custom1", {"DUMMY"}, Type, {"DUMMY"}, "Type", JoinKind.LeftOuter),
#"Expanded Type" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Merged Queries", "Type", {"Type"}, {"Type.1"}),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Expanded Type", "Count", each if [Contract Type] = [Type.1] then 1 else 0),
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Added Custom", {"Start Date", "Type.1"}, {{"Count", each List.Sum([Count]), type number}})
in
#"Grouped Rows"
You are using Resource List as the name of the actual Table, but it is the name of the native Table. So give the new Table name "Table" and use this code
Hi BeaBF . I am not sure if this is what you mean. Apology. So I'm getting an error 😞
The encircled query is the first code. The query above is the one with error. Is the native table is the first code? Sorry, still learning Dax
third_hicana Let's recap.
Create a first table, named "Type", with this code:
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45Wcs7PKylKTC7JL1LSUTJWitWJVgpILcpNzEvNK4GLhCUmJ+YlV0L4sQA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Type = _t, DUMMY = _t]),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Type", type text}})
in
#"Changed Type"in this way:
Then, create a second table, named "Table" with this code:
let
Source = #"Resource List",
#"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(Source, "DUMMY", each "3"),
#"Merged Queries" = Table.NestedJoin(#"Added Custom1", {"DUMMY"}, Type, {"DUMMY"}, "Type", JoinKind.LeftOuter),
#"Expanded Type" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Merged Queries", "Type", {"Type"}, {"Type.1"}),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Expanded Type", "Count", each if [Contract Type] = [Type.1] then 1 else 0),
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Added Custom", {"Start Date", "Type.1"}, {{"Count", each List.Sum([Count]), type number}})
in
#"Grouped Rows"in this way:
Follow the screenshots.

Hi BeaBF Yay! Now it works. Thank you so much for your help and patience 🙂 . My last question would be does the 3 rows will automatically generate for next month and count the types? 🙂 Thanks again
third_hicana Yes, you have to refresh the table using the appropriate button and it will automatically populate with the new month and the corresponding counts.
