Hi @coliveira03_ ,
this is easiest to be done through the UI in Power Query. You group on "FolderNumber" and add 2 aggregation fields: One with the sum of column "Hooley Index" and another that returns all fields from the partitions (Operation: "All rows"). You expand all these columns out afterwards.

1) Check the column "FolderNumber" -> rightclick mouse and check "Group By"

2) Click on advanced and do 2 aggregations:

a) Sum on "Hooley Index" as "index1" and

b) "All rows"- operation with any string in "New column name" that you like.

 

3) Expand out the columms from the "All rows" aggregation
