Search All Column Values in a different Column
Hi All!
I have a column with dirty data - lets call it ddColumn. Some of the Rows in the ddColumn contain product groups.
I would like to have a calculated column with the name of the product group - if found - and if not, just a blank value.
The product groups can be found in a product details table. The table with ddColumn has no relation to the product details table.
In a simplified way I thought it could look something like this:
if([productgroup] found in [ddColumn], return this [product group], "")
In dax i thought it could look something like this. But since a Column cant be used for search I do only get error.
If(Search('productdetails'[productGroup], [ddColumn], 1, Blank())>0, 'productdetails'[productGroup], Blank())
I hope someone of you might have a good solution for this.
Thanks in advance!
please try
Calculated Column = MAXX ( FILTER ( VALUES ( Products[Group] ), CONTAINSSTRING ( Table1[ddcolumn], Products[Group] ) ), Products[Group] )
