create new table from existing table column

Hi all,

 

pls, help me to solve this issue.

 

I have an existing table and from this table, I need to create a new table but need to sum of values in the new table.

 

 

I need a new table with three columns only

discipline, PW attribute, PW value

civil & structural , pw17, 0.45%

civil & structural , pw18, 0.46%

 

could you help me with how to do this?

 

thanks

 

 

 

  • RAKESH1986 Right-click your query and create a reference. Select your three columns, right-click the header row and choose "Remove other columns". Now do a Group By operation, group by discipline and PW attribute with a sum aggregation for your PW value.

      but this not working for me, see below

      I added groups by two columns.

       

       

       

      after this, I am getting the error invalid ref

      what wrong I did in this step?

        Is the data source an Excel file?  If so, there may be a reference error in one or more of the cells that Power Query can not handle.
