Hi, I have currently two tables, Table1 and Table2.
Table1 is the main data set;
Table2 is derived from Table1 using filters to only include rows where TypeID="Personal"
i.e. Table2 =
FILTER(
'Table1',
'Table1'[TypeID]="Personal"
)
I would now like to create a new Table3 where it is also derived from Table1 but excludes rows where 'Table1'[WorkplaceID]='Table2'[WorkplaceID].
I have tried using the following formula but it doesn't work:
Table3 =
FILTER(
'Table1',
'Table1'[WorkplaceID]<>'Table2'[WorkplaceID]
)
Problem with the above formula is that I am unable to key in the column 'Table2'[WorkplaceID] into the formula.
Table1
| WorkplaceID | ChemicalID | TypeID | Date |
| A | Hydrochloric acid | Area | 1 Jan 2012 |
| A | Nitric acid | Personal | 5 Jan 2012 |
| B | Hydrochloric acid | Personal | 2 Jan 2012 |
| B | Hydrochloric acid | Personal | 6 Jan 2012 |
| C | Sulphuric acid | Area | 1 Jan 2012 |
| C | Potassium hydroxide | Area | 3 Jan 2012 |
| D | Magnesium hydroxide | Area | 4 Jan 2012 |
| E | Potassium hydroxide | Personal | 3 Jan 2012 |
| F | Sulphuric acid | Area | 5 Jan 2012 |
Table 2
| WorkplaceID | ChemicalID | TypeID | Date |
| A | Nitric acid | Personal | 5 Jan 2012 |
| B | Hydrochloric acid | Personal | 2 Jan 2012 |
| B | Hydrochloric acid | Personal | 6 Jan 2012 |
| E | Potassium hydroxide | Personal | 3 Jan 2012 |
[Desired Result] Table3
| WorkplaceID | ChemicalID | TypeID | Date |
| C | Sulphuric acid | Area | 1 Jan 2012 |
| C | Potassium hydroxide | Area | 3 Jan 2012 |
| D | Magnesium hydroxide | Area | 4 Jan 2012 |
| F | Sulphuric acid | Area | 5 Jan 2012 |
Solved! Go to Solution.
For creating a new table.
Table3 =
FILTER ( Table1, NOT ( Table1[WorkplaceID] IN VALUES ( Table2[WorkplaceID] ) ) )
For creating a new table.
Table3 =
FILTER ( Table1, NOT ( Table1[WorkplaceID] IN VALUES ( Table2[WorkplaceID] ) ) )
Works like a charm, thanks Jihwan!
