Populate Conditional Column by Common ID
Hi All,
I am new to Power BI, and I am stuck on the best way to solve an issue. The requirement is to populate multiple columns based multiple criteria from multi-rowed data. I was able to get the conditional column set up correctly, but I would like the rows to populate on all rows based on that ID.
| ID | Criteria 1 | Critera 2 | Success |
| 001 | Meets | Does not meet | Yes |
| 001 | Does not meet | Does not meet | No |
| 002 | Does not meet | Doest not meet | No |
I would like to be able to see success = yes for all rows for any time there is a success based on any subsequent rows. What is the best way to accomplish this within Power Query? I was able to get this to work on the report layer by adding in a column that concatenated the values, and another that checked that column for data, but I would like a better way since there will be multiple "success" columns.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Is it ok to have a calculated column instead of using Power Query (since this is in the DAX forum)? Perhaps this can work?
Success = VAR _rowId = 'Table'[ID] RETURN IF ( CONTAINS ( ALL ( 'Table' ); 'Table'[ID]; _rowId; 'Table'[Criteria 1]; "Meets" ) || CONTAINS ( ALL ( 'Table' ); 'Table'[ID]; _rowId; 'Table'[Criteria 2]; "Meets" ); "Yes"; "No" )Best Regards // Ulf

Yes, this is much cleaner than what I was doing. I could also use this to have the full logic in here. Thanks for the help!
- AnonymousNot applicableAs you rightly say - this is a job for Power Query, not DAX. Please ask this question on a Power Query forum.
