expression.error when trying to add up numerics in Power Query

Hello AJPF
you get this error because List.Sum is expecting a list, but you are feeding the function a number. I don't know whats the goal you are trying to achieve. I suppose you would like to sum the whole column start. This however would result in the same number in every row, as you are not filter the column before. If this is it what you would like to achive use this formula
= Table.AddColumn(#"PREVIOUS STEP", "Start Total", each List.Sum(#"PREVIOUS STEP"[Start]))If this post helps or solves your problem, please mark it as solution (to help other users find useful content and to acknowledge the work of users that helped you)
Kudoes are nice too
Have fun
