My table is as follow
Col1 Col2
11_A 9
12_B 8
13_C 7
14_A 6
15_A 4
The table we need after the query
Col1 Col2 Col3
11_A 0 9
12_B 8 0
13_C 7 0
14_A 0 6
15_A 0 4
My query is
Col3 =
LEFT( 'Table'[Col2],
SEARCH("A", 'Table'[Col1], 0,
LEN('Table'[Col1])
)
)
Go to the query designer Add Column > Custom Column and use the following expression:
Update
You need two expressions (two new columns) for this:
One is:
'Your Column3
=if Text.Contains([Col1], "A") = true then [Col2] else 0
And the second:
'Your Column2
=if Text.Contains([Col1], "A") = false then [Col2] else 0
There are many ways to solve this,
Another easy way I like to do this with no-coding is to use Conditional Columns:
In PBI select Power Query Editor
Select your table on the edge of the screen
Select Add Column tab
Select Conditional Columns...
Name your column
Enter your condition as in the picture
You can add several conditions if you like
Don't forget to format your column to numeric if needed.

I am using PowerBI desktop to create visualization from data source (a table in excel sheet) and I need to create a calculated field from one of the columns from the data. One of the columns in my data table is as follows:
Technology
A
A;A
B;B;B
C;D;C
A;A;B
B;B;B
D;D
A;
;
;;
I want to create a new column of type Boolean that outputs 1 when only one unique item is in a row of column and 0 when items in the semi-colon separated list are not unique. Like this:
Technology
New Column
A
1
A;A
1
B;B;B
1
C;D;C
0
A;A;B
0
B;D;B
0
D;D
1
A;
1
;
0
;;
0
How can I do this in PowerBI desktop?
EDIT: Updated requirements to test three more cases. (last three rows)
Add a new column and type in the following:
if List.Count( List.RemoveItems( List.Distinct( Text.Split([Technology],";")), {""})) = 1 then 1 else 0
I have table 'tblA' with only 1 column named 'Value'
Value
1
2
The second table 'tblB' with several columns
Col1 Col2
Test A
Dump B
How can I have a join between them so that I will have new table with result like this (each value in tblA will fill in to all rows in tblB):
Col1 Col2 Value
Test A 1
Dump B 1
Test A 2
Dump B 2
I also tried to use for loop to get one-by-one value in tblA. But it seems that DAX didn't support loop.
Please advise.
Use expression for a calculated table
tblC = CROSSJOIN ( tblA, tblB )
Sample file
The column c of a table T can have the values 1, 2 or 3. I want to filter the table such as when the user selects value 1 nothing is filtered. When the selected value is 2 then show only the rows with the c column containing the value 2 or the value 3 not the value 1 and finally if the selected value is 3 then show only those rows containing 3 in the c column. The slider or a plain filter must be single selection not multi because otherwise it would violate one of the user's business rule.
Selected Show
1 all rows
2 rows with 2 or 3
3 only rows with 3
I tried to create columns and to create measures but I can't get anywhere. Any directions?
I agree that the disconnected table might be the best workaround here. I hope this solution will work with your actual file.
Step 1 - create a new disconnected table
FilterC = DISTINCT(T[c])
Step 2 - make sure that your slicer is sourced from the new table (FilterC)
Step 3 - create a measure that will return 1 for rows that we want to see, and 0 for rows that we want to hide:
mFilter =
var Filter_C = SELECTEDVALUE(FilterC[c])
var Row_C = SELECTEDVALUE(T[c])
return
SWITCH(
Filter_C,
"1", 1,
"2", IF(OR(Row_C = "2", Row_C = "3"), 1, 0),
"3", IF(Row_C = "3", 1, 0)
)
Step 4 - add this measure to the table, or even table filters will suffice.
Step 5 - start switching the values!
First you need to set it to a number column.
Second, you could write complex measures and use a disconnected table, but the best option is to use the correct slicer. There is a Greater than or Equal To option.
I have a requirement where I have a data like this,
Date Name Age
1-1-2018 A 1
2-2-2018 B 1
3-3-2018 B 1
6-6-2018 C 2
7-7-2018 B 6
I am trying to give a slicer to the user to select the required number of months from the last month.
So to do that, I am using a calculated column like this:
Month Year = DATEDIFF((Table1[Date]), TODAY(), MONTH) + 1
So that changes the data to something like this:
Date Name Age MonthYear
1-1-2018 A 1 7
2-2-2018 B 1 6
3-3-2018 B 1 5
6-6-2018 C 2 2
7-7-2018 B 6 1
The user selects the Month Year from the Slicer.
For example, when he selects 2, I want to display the last 2 months records in the table.
Expected Output:
Date Name Age
6-6-2018 C 2
7-7-2018 B 6
This works for me if I hardcode it like this:
Calculated Table = CALCULATETABLE(Table1,
FILTER(Table1, OR(Table1[MonthYear] > 2, Table1[MonthYear] = 2)))
But it fails when I try to pass the value in the place of 2 dynamically through a measure using SelectedValue function.
Calculated columns and calculated tables cannot reference a slicer value since they are only computed when you load your data.
If you want to apply this filtering to a visual, I'd suggest creating a separate table for your slicer. For example, you could use Months = GENERATESERIES(1,12) and then rename the column Months as well.
Use the Months[Months] column for your slicer and then create a measure which references it to filter your table/matrix visual.
Filter = IF(SELECTEDVALUE(Months[Months]) >= MAX(Table1[Month Year]), 1, 0)
Then use that measure in your Visual level filters box:

My data is simple table:
I want to do the following:
For starting cell K7 on patient tab
I want to query the call log tab for
two main conditions.
Query select loqic: return rows D,E,F,A when certain conditions are met:
if text colC equals text in patient tab cell c7 AND col D says "No beds Available" And colI shows time left to calling greater than 0
OR If not than:
if col B=cell H3 in patient tab, and Col C= Cell C7 in patient tab
Thank you for your help
My example could help you.
Suppose you have a small data, like this, columns A:D:
Then you may use query state with two or more OR conditions, but insert them into parentheses. Sample formula:
=QUERY({A:D},"select Col1, Col2, Col3, Col4 where (Col1 < 7 and Col3 = 'c') or (Col2 = 'a' and Col4 > 0)")
To use Col1, Col2, Col3... notation inside query, data must be inside {}
