Dax using IF and Contains

[jessenewold]

Hello, 

I've created the below to replace the name of the terminal ID i.e. CAD01-2006 with Dispatch etc. 

I have hundreds of terminals.  I want to be able to find all of the terminals that have "web" in the name and replace them with a new name.   Help is very much appreciated.

I want to find all terminal ID's that have $ in the name and name them "Mobile" in the Created Terminal Group column. Final all termianl ID's that have ABC in the name and name them "Center1" in the Created Terminal Group column.

Thank you.

TERMINAL ID	CREATED TERMINAL GROUP
$1	MOBILE
$3	MOBILE
$5	MOBILE
$6	MOBILE
ABCpc150-037	CENTER1
ABCpc150-038	CENTER1
ABCpc150-039	CENTER1
ABCpc150-040	CENTER1
ABCpc150-041	CENTER1
ABCpc150-042	CENTER1

@jessenewold ,

You can try this approach:

Measure = 
IF (
    CONTAINSSTRING ( SELECTEDVALUE ( T4[TERMINAL ID] ), "$" ) = TRUE (),
    "MOBILE",
    SELECTEDVALUE ( T4[TERMINAL ID] )
)
