LOOKUPVALUE not reporting all availabe data

Dear all,

 

i have 2 tables whre i need to combine the data set. I tried to achive this by RELATED or LOOKUPVALUE but both approaches report only a part of the available data.

picture I: report table which contains the LOOKUPVALUE fxt

 

Spoiler
SN_OEM = LOOKUPVALUE(BOM[Merged], BOM[IAL Part Number], ANF[P/N])
the second table is containing the necessary data. As you may see the secontable is containig the required information but it is not reporting it back. Both tables are sorted by p/n

@CJC_DB Try this:

SN_OEM = MAXX(FILTER('BOM',[IAL Part Number] = 'ANF'[P/N]),[Merged])

If that doesn't work then try doing a Trim operation in Power Query for P/N and IAL Part Number columns.

I wonder if there's perhaps some white space (like a space at the end) in either BOM[IAL Part Number] or ANF[P/N].
   

Just curious if you add a column with a formula like this, what happens?

LookupValueTest = CALCULATE(MAX(BOM[Merged]), FILTER(ALL(BOM),BOM[IAL Part Number] = ANF[P/N]))

Hi @CJC_DB , I think i found a solution. 

 

1. Go to Power Query Editor and select this [P/N] column in the first table and right click and go to transform  - > text transforms -> trim as show in the below table. And do the same for the second table [P/N] column.

2. Click close and apply.

3. Then try the lookup again it should work. I tried my self with one example and it works.
