    Hi perishkabb 

    You need to add a custom column in Power Query to reflect these conditions and later delete the old column. This way you create a replacement.

    Statement should be written like this:

    if ([Program Code] = "QI41" or [Program Code]="41IRSA") then "R091-RT"
    else if ([Program Code] = "QZ09" or [Program Code]="40IRSA") then "R091-FT"
    else [Org Code]

     

    I have recreated your case with a small sample. You can find the file in this link. 

    Hope it helps 🙂

    Hi perishkabb ,

    You could use the following dax to create a new column:

    org.codenew = IF('Table'[org.code]="QI41"||'Table'[org.code]="41IRSA","R091-RT",IF('Table'[org.code]="QZ09"||'Table'[org.code]="40IRSA","R091-FT",'Table'[pro.code]))

    final you will get :

     

    Wish it is helpful for you!

     

    Best Regards
