Combine and SUM multiple columns

Hi,

 

I created dashbord table and I would like to combine the column1 with commas and SUM the column2 based on column3. Is it possible?

 

I have a table like this,

Column1,Column2,Column3

A5XX
B10XX
C12XX
D3YY
F8YY
G15ZZ
Y4SS
H1BB

 

Final result should be like below

Column1,Column2,Column3

A,B,C27 (5+10+12)XX
D,F11(3+8)YY
G15ZZ
Y4SS
H1BB

 

Thanks in advance.

Create a meausre like this:

 

Measure = CONCATENATEX(VALUES('Table'[Column1]),[Column1],",") 

Create a table visualization with Column 3, Column 2 with default SUM and this measure.

Hi @Progressive,

 

Alternatively, you could new a calculated table with this formula:

New Table =
SUMMARIZE (
    Table,
    Table[Column3],
    "Column1", CONCATENATEX ( Table, Table[Column1], "," ),
    "Column2", SUM ( Table[Column2] )
)

Hi @v-yulgu-msft,

I tried your formula and it works with one downside. Now, I have duplicates in Column1. Like A,B,C,A,A,A,A

Is there anyway to remove dubs in Column1. Something like DISTINCT SUMMARIZE 🙂
