Sum Rows By Month Withour Group

Hey,

 

I Work with different langaue so I put a text box with english translation.

 

I Want to create with M langaue, a calculated column that will calculate the total LOG column by month, but the Group column will stay (without group again).

 

Which function can I use? I want to create this column for calculating the percentage of each group by each month from the total hours of the month.

 

Thanks!

 

**At the picture I meant to "Monthly Houres Per Month"

Place the following M code in a blank query to see the steps.

 

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WCk4tKEnNTUotUtJRcgRiCyMLc6VYHVQJJyA2NzUyA0v4J5fkI9SbW1oYogmDVRsZWIKF/fLLkI23NDQyRhcHqbc0MTQBi7ukJqOoNzHBEAepNzW3sFCKjQUA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Month = _t, Group = _t, #"LOG Hours" = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Month", type text}, {"Group", type text}, {"LOG Hours", Int64.Type}}),

    #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Changed Type", {"Month"}, {{"Count", each _}, {"Sum", each List.Sum([LOG Hours]), type nullable number}}),
    #"Expanded Count" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Grouped Rows", "Count", {"Group"}, {"Group"})
in
    #"Expanded Count"

Either. If you're going for the excel file, you have to share the URL to the file hosted elsewhere: Dropbox, Onedrive... or just upload the file to a site like tinyupload.com (no sign-up required).

Hi @Anonymous 

You can do this with Group By

Can you share the contents of the table in text format, so that it can be copied and we can provide an exact solution
