Hello, I'm having some trouble puting a formula together to add a column that will return Sub Account 12345 for the first row in the table below. The account number for the department that needs to be replaced will always be 236.
| Account | Sub Account | Invoice Number | Amount |
| 236 | 00000 | 5555 | -10 |
| 526 | 12345 | 5555 | 20 |
| 205 | 00000 | 5555 | 30 |
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @JSData
You can create a new column:
Column = var a=FILTER('Table',[Invoice Number]=EARLIER('Table'[Invoice Number]))
return IF([Amount]>0,[Sub Account],MAXX(a,[Sub Account]))
Best Regards!

hi @JSData
I have to apolgize I did not put enough detail in my orignal post. Your solution will work if it's only one replacement. The problem I'm working on is for each invoice number that has this account number I need to correct subaccount to be assigned to that account. I've put an expanded table with a desired result column that hopefully explains this more clearly. Again I apologize for being unclear the first time.
| Account | Sub Account | Invoice Number | Amount | Desired result |
| 236 | 00000 | 5555 | -10 | 12345 |
| 526 | 12345 | 5555 | 20 | 12345 |
| 205 | 00000 | 5555 | 30 | 00000 |
| 236 | 00000 | 5554 | -10 | 12343 |
| 526 | 12343 | 5554 | 20 | 12343 |
| 205 | 00000 | 5554 | 30 | 00000 |
| 526 | 12333 | 5253 | 20 | 12333 |
