I have a wild request from one of my teams. They stupidly have an Excel that they populate each month that's based on Account Managers - but all those Account Managers live in different fields in the CRM - I think 7 in total. Before I go back and shout at them for being stupid and ask them to tidy their data up, I want to know if it's even possible in Power Query to combine multiple values from each of the columns, into one column?
I gave it a go using a custom column e. [regional director]&" "&[managing director]&" "&[sales director] etc, but it just came back with nulls as I'm presuming as there is multiple values in each of those columns, it can't deal with it. But as ever, I know with Power Query, there will always be a way to do this.
Essentially, within my new columns, I want all the Directors that are listed in each of the 7 fields/columns, to be listed, regardless of whether that are accounts with 5 Managers, 4, 3 etc. Actually, even as I type that out - I can't have a column with all of those can I? The end goal would then be to use a visual level filter to let me choose which Directors appear in the visual.
Anyone else come across a similar problem?
Thanks in advance
