In vendor List every Month, new Vendor is added. So i have to add Manualy Vendor name & Mention is type (Strategic or Non Strategic). 

My Question is - If new venor is added, than this type will be "Non Strategic" by default.

Using PowerQuery :

  • Click on Add Column in the menu.
  • Choose Custom Column.
  • In the formula, write something like: if [VendorType] = null then "Non Strategic" else [VendorType]. This formula assumes that the column where you specify the vendor type is named 'VendorType'

Using DAX :

Create a Calculated Column:

  • Go to the Data view.
  • Right-click on your table and select New column.
  • Your calculated column syntax: VendorType = IF(ISBLANK([VendorType]), "Non Strategic", [VendorType]).

Hi @jackypatel ,

Since you have created the relationship between the table 'Vendor List' and 'PDI' base on the field [Vendor], you can create a table visual with the below Fields settings to get it:
