Search a text in each row then create a new column

Hello,

 

I have the following sample data

IDDATA
1A
1A
2A
2B
3B

 

My need is to create a third column, which will check for each ID,
if there is at least and only A then list A
if there is at least and only B then list B
Else (there is at least one A and one B then A & B

IDDATAResult
1AA
1AA
2AA&B
2BA&B
3BB


Thanks for your help.

hi @MB_PowerBI 

 

try to add a column like this:

Result2 = 
VAR _id = [ID]
VAR _table=
CALCULATETABLE(
    VALUES(TableName[Data]),
    ALL(TableName),
    TableName[ID] = _id
)
RETURN
CONCATENATEX(
   _table,
    TableName[Data],
    "&"
)

 

it works like this:

Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension!

DAX is simple, but NOT EASY!

or something like this:

 

Result2 = 
VAR _table=
CALCULATETABLE(
    VALUES(TableName[Data]),
    ALLEXCEPT(TableName, TableName[ID])
)
RETURN
CONCATENATEX(
   _table,
    TableName[Data],
    "&"
)
