Create a filter in an expression so NULL values are being excluded

[anguyen83]

Hi

I just created a new table called LS_Consolidated which comprises of taking columns from 4 other tables and creating 3 columns in the new table.

The Timestamp field which is created in the new column now has NULL values (this is because the data from the 4 tables has null values)

Expression below

LS_Consolidated = Union(SELECTCOLUMNS('Lead',"Stage","TS1","Timestamp",[LS1_Timestamp__c].[Date],"Account_Id",[Id]),SELECTCOLUMNS('Lead',"Stage","TS2","Timestamp",[LS2_Timestamp__c].[Date],"Account_Id",[Id]),SELECTCOLUMNS('Contact',"Stage","TS3","Timestamp",[LS3_Timestamp__c].[Date],"Account_Id",[Id]),SELECTCOLUMNS('Contact',"Stage","TS4","Timestamp",[LS4_Timestamp__c].[Date],"Account_Id",[Id]))

I would like to incorporate a filter in this expression so that, when the table LS_Consolidated is created null values are filtered and do not get included in LS_Consolidated

Hope someone can help

Thank you

Hi @anguyen83,

The filter is used to remove the row where there is null cell in any column, you should add filter in the table rather than column. I list a simple example to filter the table. The first screenshot is my table, I filter the table using the formula and get the second expected result.

Table 2 = CALCULATETABLE(Table1,FILTER(Table1,Table1[Total]<>BLANK()))

So you’d better amend the table in your expression. Replace the ‘Lead’ table as the following table.

New Lead=CALCULATETABLE('Lead',FILTER('Lead',[LS1_Timestamp__c].[Date]<>BLANK()&&"Account_Id"<>BLANK()&&[ID]<>BLANK()))

If you have any question, please let me know.
