Group records in Power BI service tables

Hi,

I am working on a report and visualizing it in form of a table. Each record of the table contains the project number, project title and the sales of project.

Now few of the project titles are similar and I wish to group these records into one, hence summing up the sales price when the projects are grouped.

e.g.

Project Num   Project Title    Sales price

1                      abc123            xxxx

2                      def123            yyyy

3                      jkl123             zzzz

 

I want to group all the records in my visualization table having Project title text as "123".

 

Is this possible to achieve in power BI, if yes How?

 

Thanks

@Anonymous Its possible in the Power BI Desktop in many ways, but you can't do it in the Service. In Desktop, you could click on expand down icon the field in the visual and create a "New Group". You could create a conditional column in Power Query, you could create a calculated column in the model, or you could create a seperate table (disassociated table) with your title and what group it should be in. Then use the column in your visual.
