Hi,

 i have three tables and i want to search for each value from table1 in table2 and table3.

End result should be such that i want to know in which tables does my searchedvalue exists.

Example :

Sample Data: Three tables

Table1Table2Table3
DeviceIdDeviceId DeviceId
InstallDateTargetOsTargetOs
NameIngestDateIdIngestDateId
PublisherIngestTimeIngestTime
SourceInfSource
VersionVersionDriverVerDate

Expected Result:

DeviceIdTable2Table3
InstallDate

VersionTable2 

 

Can we achieve this output using power bi?

 

Thanks

Santosh

Hi @SantoshKumar ,

 

You can add the following measure:

 

Result = var Table_2 = 
 IF(
      SUMX(Table2,
           FIND(
                UPPER(SELECTEDVALUE(Table1[Table1])),
                UPPER(Table2[Table2])
                ,,0
               )
          ) > 0,
      "Table2",
      ""
     )

var Table_3 =  IF(
      SUMX(Table3,
           FIND(
                UPPER(SELECTEDVALUE(Table1[Table1])),
                UPPER(Table3[Table3])
                ,,0
               )
          ) > 0,
      "Table3",
      ""
     )

Return
CONCATENATE(Table_2,Table_3)

 

If you prefer a colum you can add the following code:

Result_Colum = var Table_2 = 
 IF(
      SUMX(Table2,
           FIND(
                UPPER(Table1[Table1]),
                UPPER(Table2[Table2])
                ,,0
               )
          ) > 0,
      "Table2",
      ""
     )

var Table_3 =  IF(
      SUMX(Table3,
           FIND(
                UPPER(Table1[Table1]),
                UPPER(Table3[Table3])
                ,,0
               )
          ) > 0,
      "Table3",
      ""
     )

Return
CONCATENATE(Table_2,Table_3)
