Summarize with identifiers from a different file

HafeezA

Hello, I am trying to replicate a SUMIFS  formula that uses 2 unique identifier fields from another file to group values values form a second file. How do I go about doing this ?

 

File one consists of key field and group field.

 

File two consists of a key and group field too and also the desired "price"  field.

 

How do I use the key and group fields in file one to summarize the "price" field in file two. Will a join tool work ?

1. Use join tool to map groups

2. Using summarize on groups.

 

Hope this helps : )
