Check if column contains specific based on other column grouping
Hallo
I am looking for a way to calculate the column "HasSuccess" in the table below given the two other columns "ItemID" and "ItemStatus". If an ItemID has a successful status, I want it to return True and otherwise return False.
| ItemID | ItemStatus | HasSuccess |
| 1 | Success | True |
| 1 | Fail | True |
| 1 | Success | True |
| 2 | Fail | False |
| 2 | Fail | False |
| 3 | Success | True |
| 4 | Fail | True |
| 4 | Success | True |
| 5 | Fail | False |
Thanks

Hi Anonymous ,
You can create a column using DAX expresion as follows:
CalcValue =
IF(COUNTROWS(FILTER(ALL(Table), (Table[ItemID] = EARLIER(Table[ItemID])) && Table[ItemStatus] = "Succes")) > 0, "True", "False")In the above DAX replace Table with your tablename.If this helps and resolves the issue, appreciate a Kudos and mark it as a Solution! 🙂Thanks,Pragati - amitchandak
Anonymous , try as a new column
new column = if(countx(filter(table[ItemID] =earlier(Table[ItemID]) && Table[ItemStatus] = "Success"),table[ItemID)>0,"True","False")
Would it be possible to do this as a power query instead?

Hi Anonymous ,
In Power Query, you will need to do a grouping against your ID column.
Check GROUP BY in Power BI in Edit Query:

Once data is grouped at ID level, you can try creating a IF-ELSE custom column.
If this helps and resolves the issue, appreciate a Kudos and mark it as a Solution! 🙂
