    Hi Anonymous ,

    You can create a calculated column as below:

    NewColumn = 
VAR _ADVcount =
    CALCULATE (
        COUNT ( 'Customers'[CustomerID] ),
        FILTER (
            ALL ( 'Customers' ),
            'Customers'[CustomerID] = EARLIER ( 'Customers'[CustomerID] )
                && 'Customers'[Material] = "ADV"
        )
    )
VAR _ENTcount =
    CALCULATE (
        COUNT ( 'Customers'[CustomerID] ),
        FILTER (
            ALL ( 'Customers' ),
            'Customers'[CustomerID] = EARLIER ( 'Customers'[CustomerID] )
                && 'Customers'[Material] = "ENT"
        )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        _ADVcount > 0,
        "ADV Customer",
        IF (
            _ENTcount > 0,
            "ENT Customer",
            CONCATENATE ( 'Customers'[Material], " Customer" )
        )
    )

    Best Regards

HI Anonymous .

You can use 

Custom = COMBINEVALUES(" ",'Sheet1 (2)'[Material],"Customer") .
 
You can also use;
CUSTOM = CONCATENATE('Sheet1 (2)'[Material],"Customer")

    Hey Anonymous ,

     

    thanks for answering here, your proposed solution results in something like this:

    CustomerIDMaterialNewColumn
    1ADVADV 1
    1ViewerViewer 1
    1EditorEditor 1
    1WhateverWhatever 1
    2ENTENT 2
    2ViewerViewer 2
    2EditorEditor 2
    2WhateverWhatever 2

     

    That is not what I am looking for. I really need all lines of a customer (with the same ID) where in one or more lines the material is ADV to be flagged as "ADV Customer".

      You don't need to use Customer ID in here; 

      Custom = COMBINEVALUES(" ",'Sheet1 (2)'[Material],"Customer").

      It is a text and not a field.

      Copy my formula as it is and see if it works.

        But even this would concat whatever is in [Material] with the term customer. Wouldn´t that result in 

        CustomerIDMaterialNewColumn
        1ADVADV Customer
        1ViewerViewer Customer
        1EditorEditor Customer
        1WhateverWhatever Customer
        2ENTENT Customer
        2ViewerViewer Customer
        2EditorEditor Customer
        2WhateverWhatever Customer



        I need a solution where the term "ADV Customer" is applied to all lines for a certain customer as soon one (or more) of the materials is ADV.
