I have created a questionnaire that consists of around 100 questions. These items are separated into 6 domains where. For the sake of easier understanding, let's just call them Domain 1 - 6.

I have them typed in one specific table called "Correspondence", with format like below:

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 300"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Question No.
[/TD]
[TD]Domain
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]1
[/TD]
[TD]A
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2
[/TD]
[TD]C
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]3
[/TD]
[TD]A
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]4
[/TD]
[TD]B
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]5
[/TD]
[TD]A
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]6
[/TD]
[TD]C
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]



I used Google Form to generate a spreadsheet of RAW data of respondents, where it will help me mark the RAW Scores, for each item on a separate column:

(An example)
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 600"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Submission ID
[/TD]
[TD]Question 1
[/TD]
[TD]Question 2
[/TD]
[TD]Question 3
[/TD]
[TD]Question 4
[/TD]
[TD]Question 5
[/TD]
[TD]Question 6
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Participant 1
[/TD]
[TD]2
[/TD]
[TD]3
[/TD]
[TD]5
[/TD]
[TD]1
[/TD]
[TD]2
[/TD]
[TD]4
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Participant 2
[/TD]
[TD]5
[/TD]
[TD]4
[/TD]
[TD]5
[/TD]
[TD]3
[/TD]
[TD]5
[/TD]
[TD]1
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Participant 3
[/TD]
[TD]1
[/TD]
[TD]1
[/TD]
[TD]1
[/TD]
[TD]2
[/TD]
[TD]2
[/TD]
[TD]2
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]



The next thing I need to do is generate another table that sums up the Domain totals for each participant. So from the example above, I need to sum 1,3,5 as Domain A, 4 as Domain B and 2 & 6 as Domain C:

(An example)
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]Domain A
[/TD]
[TD]Domain B
[/TD]
[TD]Domain C
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Total score for Participant 1
[/TD]
[TD]9
[/TD]
[TD]1
[/TD]
[TD]7
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]


The hardest thing is to find a proper method to kick start this process. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Either formulas or VBAs would be fine too. Thanks!

ignore my previous post#2

here is with PowerQuery:

[Table="width:, class:head"]
[tr=bgcolor:#FFFFFF][td=bgcolor:#70AD47]Submission ID[/td][td=bgcolor:#70AD47]A[/td][td=bgcolor:#70AD47]B[/td][td=bgcolor:#70AD47]C[/td][/tr]

[tr=bgcolor:#FFFFFF][td=bgcolor:#E2EFDA]Participant 1[/td][td=bgcolor:#E2EFDA]
9​
[/td][td=bgcolor:#E2EFDA]
1​
[/td][td=bgcolor:#E2EFDA]
7​
[/td][/tr]

[tr=bgcolor:#FFFFFF][td]Participant 2[/td][td]
15​
[/td][td]
3​
[/td][td]
5​
[/td][/tr]

[tr=bgcolor:#FFFFFF][td=bgcolor:#E2EFDA]Participant 3[/td][td=bgcolor:#E2EFDA]
4​
[/td][td=bgcolor:#E2EFDA]
2​
[/td][td=bgcolor:#E2EFDA]
3​
[/td][/tr]
[/table]

Code: 
[SIZE=1]let
    Source = Table.NestedJoin(Table2,{"Attribute"},Table1,{"Question No."},"Table1",JoinKind.LeftOuter),
    #"Expanded Table1" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(Source, "Table1", {"Domain"}, {"Domain"}),
    #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Expanded Table1", {"Submission ID", "Domain"}, {{"Value", each List.Sum([Value]), type number}}),
    #"Sorted Rows" = Table.Sort(#"Grouped Rows",{{"Domain", Order.Ascending}}),
    #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Sorted Rows", List.Distinct(#"Sorted Rows"[Domain]), "Domain", "Value", List.Sum)
in
    #"Pivoted Column"[/SIZE]

but before execute M-code above you need to prepare both tables of source

The RAW data will be constantly modified and not maintained by me and thus I am not sure if I could change the format of the RAW table to the one you specified.....but appreciate the thought!

you can change data in source table as long as format and type of data will be the same in appropriate places

changes was maded in PowerQuery - your source table is still the same as in your post
