I need some help to achieve this, hope someone can help.
I have a table with a column named 'Title'.
I have another table with a column named 'Code'.
What I need to achieve is:
If table1.Title contains a value that is present in tabl2.Code, I want to see this code in Table1.
Example:
Table1
CODE
ABC
DEF
XYZ
Table2 has a column TITLE, and I want to add a column CODE.
Example:
CODE TITLE
DEF this title contains DEF, so I want to see this as code
ABC this title contains ABC
this title contains QQQ. QQQ is not present in table one, so code must stay empty
Solved! Go to Solution.
You are right. Following is amended
Code =
VAR T1 =
FILTER ( Table1, CONTAINSSTRING ( Table2[Title], Table1[Code] ) )
RETURN
IF ( NOT ISEMPTY ( T1 ), MAXX ( T1, Table1[Code] ) )
You are right. Following is amended
Code =
VAR T1 =
FILTER ( Table1, CONTAINSSTRING ( Table2[Title], Table1[Code] ) )
RETURN
IF ( NOT ISEMPTY ( T1 ), MAXX ( T1, Table1[Code] ) )
I think the provided solution doesn't work:
I used this to test it:
Table1table1
Table 2
table 2
New calculated column in table 2:
Hi @yyyy
Seems there is some confusion or typo mistakes in the question. I will assume that Table2 has the column [Title] that is a text which might contain one of codes available in Table1[Code] and you want to create a new column in Table2 that contains the code from Table1 if it existis with the title text otherwise return blank.
Code =
IF (
NOT ISEMPTY ( FILTER ( Table1, CONTAINSSTRING ( Table2[Title], Table1[Code] ) ) ),
Table1[Code]
)
