In my data set, I have a column of thousands of unique codes that are about 15 characters in length (ex. 17.26AZ85894) . I am trying to find a solution to group them to easily sort the data. I have made a new column to show just the first 5 characters (Stem+2 = 17.26). From the Stem +2, I made a new column, Componenet Type. However there is one code with in Stem +2, 17.26, that I need to exlcude from the "Bulk Equipment" group.
Example of If statement: Component Type = IF( Metric Table [Stem +2] = "17.26" && Except(Stem +5 = "17.264YZ" , "Bulk Equipment", "null")
Mainly, I want to exclude one code from my all encompassing 17.26 if statement.
Please let me know if this is unclear and I will try to better explain my problem.
Thank you in advance!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Unless I'm missing something you can use not equal
from the original code
IF( Left(Metric Table [Code],5) = "17.26" && Left(Metric Table [Code],8) <> "17.264YZ" , "Bulk Equipment", "null")
or using 2 columns
IF( Metric Table [Stem +2] = "17.26" && Metric Table [Stem +5] <> "17.264YZ" , "Bulk Equipment", "null")
You can also do similar functions in M (Query Editor)
Depending on what your data looks like you may be better creating a mapping table and joining the code or a sub part of the code to the mapping table.
For smaller grouping exerecises try the group banding feature. Right click on a column and select New Group.
Hi @layheart,
Have you tried the solution provided by @stretcharm above? Does it work in your scenario? If it works, could you accept it as solution to close this thread?
If you still have any question on this issue, feel free to post here.
