Sequence by multiple columns

I need to be able to sequence my data using the current sequence - but totaling the "QuantityToBuild" column by grouping by the "Component" Column. 

 

So in otherwords I would need sequence 1 and 2 to be labeled as "1", Component "2128", and the QuantityToBuild "336". The go to sequence "2", Component "631", QuantityToBuild "224", and so on..

 

Here is my data currently as is:

SequenceItemNumberComponentQuantityToBuildDate
117821282245/11/2020 0:00
217921281125/11/2020 0:00

Here is how I would hope my data would look:

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

We can create a calculated table to meet your requirement:

 

Table 2 =
VAR temp =
    ADDCOLUMNS (
        'Table',
        "MinS",
        VAR s = [Sequence]
        VAR C = [Component]
        RETURN
            MINX (
                FILTER (
                    'Table',
                    VAR c1 = [Component]
                    VAR s1 = [Sequence]
                    RETURN
                        CALCULATE (
                            COUNTROWS ( 'Table' ),
                            FILTER (
                                ALL ( 'Table' ),
                                'Table'[Component] = c1
                                    && 'Table'[Sequence] <= s
                                    && 'Table'[Sequence] >= s1
                            )
                        ) = s - s1 + 1
                ),
                [Sequence]
            )
    )
RETURN
    SELECTCOLUMNS (
        SUMMARIZE (
            temp,
            [MinS],
            "Sequence", RANKX ( temp, [MinS],, ASC, DENSE ),
            "Component", MAX ( 'Table'[Component] ),
            "QuantityToBuild", SUM ( 'Table'[QuantityToBuild] ),
            "Date", MAX ( 'Table'[Date] )
        ),
        "Sequence", [Sequence],
        "Component", [Component],
        "QuantityToBuild", [QuantityToBuild],
        "Date", [Date]
    )

click on the component field, then click on modelling table in your menu ribbon and under column tools  click on sort by column, you can then use the sequence column to sort your component field
