Hi, I'm fairly new to Power Bi and I'm not understanding how to do this.
Let's say I have table (1) and I want to create table (2):
(1)
(2)
I managed to create table (3), but I want to create a calculated column like the one in table (2)
(3)
I don't know how to summarize in a calculated column.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
thanks

Hey @Anonymous ,
to get rid of rows, you always have to use Power Query. A calculated column just adds a new column, but it will not combine rows.
In your case you need a group by with the following criteria:
Then the result will look like this:
Check the video I created on how to do that, it's pretty easy:

Thank you for your solution, I will try it out.
Let's say I don't care about rows, i.e. I want every rows to display the sum of "Value" for every "Name", how would you do that?
Hey @Anonymous ,
you can add a calculated column and ignore all the row context except for the Name. The following calculated column will do that:
Total Value by Name =
CALCULATE(
SUM( 'myTable'[Value] ),
ALLEXCEPT(
'myTable',
'myTable'[Name]
)
)
