Concatenate text based on if condition
Hello,
I need to concatenate text based on several columns with if condition.
My formula is the following:
(if [column1] <> 0 then "1" else "") & (if [Column2] <> 0 then "2" else "") & (if [Column3] <> 0 then "3" else ""))
My goal is to get "123" if none of my columns have a zero value, but I'd like to get "12" or "13" or "1" if some of my columns contain zero values. Yet, the else "" creates an error, it seems that power BI can't concatenate values if one of the value is "".
Do you have any idea of how to solve this issue ?
Thanks !

also works fine.
Could you please check if all the data in these three columns are number not text?

Did you do this in PQ?
It looks fine on my end.
= Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Custom", each (if [Column1] <> 0 then "1" else "") & (if [Column2] <> 0 then "2" else "") & (if [Column3] <> 0 then "3" else ""))- AnonymousNot applicable
Hello,
Thank your for your answer, but did you try if it works if the 0 is in Column2 ?
