Standard Deviation using Multiple Column Groupings

Hello Alteryx Community!

 

I am attempting to determine if values in my data-set are outliers. Of course, to do this, I need to calculate standard deviation first. 

 

My data can have occurrences where different customers can purchases the same items, so I created an ID to join the two together (SmithA1 and Brown A1). Grouping by this CustomerID, I need to calculate if $ Error for any given week in a range of weeks is outside of 3 St. Deviations from the norm. If so, I would like to deem the week an outlier.

 

I have attached an image below, as well as an example of the file I am using. The columns with blue headers are how my data is already set up, and I would like to use Alteryx to calculate the columns with yellow headers. I have attemped to solve this using the Summarize Tool, but am running into a wall.

 

Thank you in advance!
