Can you Update Rows in Tables in Power Query

Hello PBI Community Good Day!

 

What I'm trying to accomplish:

 

I need to add 4 rows to an existing independent table in my .pbix, so I can show YoY % in my matrix visual.

 

Screen shots below

 

Wondering if this is possibile, if how would I go about doing it?

 

Much appreciate your time.

 

Thank you

Hi @PBI-Curious ,
If I understand your question, create a new table in Power Query by Enter Data, as I have done.  Then select your original table. Next append Queries. Select your new table as the second table.


Let me know if you have any questions.

If this solves your issues, please mark it as the solution, so that others can find it easily. Kudos 👍are nice too.
