Hello Anonymous
try like this,
M code:
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WSiwoyElV0lEqSE0sAlKGSrE60TAOTA4imF+UmJcO4iYl5gEhkGEEFodz4QqMkA2BixqjmgKVNsZhhjEOO9HUo5gC5SCrjQUA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Item = _t, #"Item 2" = _t, #"Order#" = _t]), ChangedType = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Item", type text}, {"Item 2", type text}, {"Order#", Int64.Type}}), RemovedDuplicates = Table.Distinct(ChangedType), AddedIndex = Table.AddIndexColumn(RemovedDuplicates, "Index", 1, 1), Join = Table.NestedJoin(AddedIndex, {"Item", "Item 2", "Order#"}, AddedIndex, {"Item 2", "Item", "Order#"}, "Dupes", JoinKind.LeftOuter), ExpandedDupes = Table.ExpandTableColumn(Join, "Dupes", {"Index"}, {"Index2"}), Distinct = Table.SelectRows(ExpandedDupes, each [Index] < [Index2]), RemovedOtherColumns = Table.SelectColumns(Distinct,{"Item", "Item 2", "Order#"}) in RemovedOtherColumns - 7 years ago
Hi Anonymous
I imagine it would be more convenient to do this in the query editor but if you want to do it in DAX, create a calculated table:
Table2 = VAR _ResTable = FILTER ( Table1; VAR _AuxTable = FILTER ( Table1; Table1[Order#] = EARLIER ( Table1[Order#] ) && Table1[Item] = EARLIER ( Table1[Item 2] ) && Table1[Item 2] = EARLIER ( Table1[Item] ) ) RETURN IF ( ( COUNTROWS ( _AuxTable ) <> 0 && Table1[Item] < Table1[Item 2] ) || COUNTROWS ( _AuxTable ) = 0; TRUE (); FALSE () ) ) RETURN _ResTable

Thanks, AlB,
It works!
You are right it would be better to make this in the query editor, but all I tried - did not work correctly.
Your DAX is too difficult but I try to understand and will use your solution.
Thanks a lot!
