Need Help

Hello everyone,

I’m seeking assistance because I can’t seem to find a solution to my issue. I truly appreciate any time and help you can provide to address my request.

Thank you in advance for your support!

Here are my data. For each material, I have its description and the name of its component.

Material

Description

Raw Mat

A

Product A

B

B

Product B

AA

C

Product C

D+E

Product E

BB

What I would like to achieve is the following result: When I select a finished product, it gives me the details of the operations to perform and the components to use. I would like a table like the one below:

Material

RM Des

RM Raw Mat

Click Transform data in the Home pane to use the power query:

Then add a custom column in the Add Column pane:

Text.Split([Raw Mat],"+")

vzhengdxumsft_3-1726555054672.png

Click Expand to new Rows:

Click Merge Queries in the Home pane:

vzhengdxumsft_5-1726555118091.png

Select the Custom column from the original table and Material column from the current table.
