    Thats fantastic. Thanks a lot for this formula. Much appreciated.

    What if instead of "if there are multiple different values in column 5 for the same part number, this will include them all in a comma separated list" , if any row have "YES" in column 5 then answer should be "YES". Is this something we can add in this DAX formula please?

Perfect and much appreciated again.

 

Sorry one last question. Similar topic. 

What if i need to add similar formula for below logic please.

1. New DAX formula in the table 4.

2. Where column 1 and Column 3 will have part numbers sometimes repeated partnumbers in both columns

3. column 5 is the desired solution. If column 1 part number or column 3 part number have "Yes" in column 5 then for the same part numbers in both column 1 and column 3 it should be "YES" please.

 

Sorry and any help will be massive push for my BI

 

Thanks a lot

If I understand you correctly you want to apply the same base logic as previously but only when column 1 and column 3 have the same part number ? You can try

new column =
IF (
    'table 1'[column1] = 'table 1'[column3],
    VAR PartNumber = 'table 1'[column1]
    RETURN
        IF (
            "YES"
                IN CALCULATETABLE (
                    VALUES ( 'table 2'[column 5] ),
                    TREATAS ( { PartNumber }, 'table 2'[part number] )
                ),
            "YES",
            "NO"
        ),
    "NO"
)

    Sorry for my poor explanation.

    Actually no.

    Example:

    I have table 4. In table 4 i have multiple columns and in column 1 having part numbers and column 3 have sub part numbers. In some cases, column1 part number might be repeating in column 3 and vice versa.

    What i am after is, if column 5 is "Yes" for either column 1 partnumber or column 3 part number, then it should be "YES" for all similar partnumbers. I hope this will help. This will help to remove the barrier what i am having. 

    Thanks again

      I think this might do it

      col 5 has yes =
VAR PartNumbers = { 'table 4'[column 1], 'table 4'[column 3] }
RETURN
    IF (
        "YES"
            IN CALCULATETABLE (
                VALUES ( 'table 2'[column 5] ),
                TREATAS ( PartNumbers, 'table 2'[part number] )
            ),
        "YES",
        "NO"
    )
