Try this. Change TableName to the name of your table. This should only work for a calculated column. You would need different dax if you want it as a measure.
IF(ContainsString('TableName'[ServiceCode],"RADMI"),'TableName'[Units],0)

 

 

Thank you. Unfortunately it does not work.  If you use the comparison "RADMI",  then row RSADMIN gets a value of 0.

We nee to have a combination R%ADMI%.  Can you assist. Thanks

 

For R%ADMI% try

IF(AND(Left('TableName'[ServiceCode],1)="R", ContainsString('TableName'[ServiceCode],"ADMI")),'TableName'[Units],0)

Thank you so much Anthony. It works beautifully well.
