Find duplicates

Hi,
I want to create a new table from the table below only containg duplicated item lines. 

A customer should only have 1 main page for each edition in a publication. In this case Name A's 2 lines should be included in the new table. Any ideas how I can do this?

@wenners68,

From your original query, then it appears to be the expected output (New table with duplicates):

This can be achieved using duplicate table and then simply using 'Keep Duplicates' (option mentioned in the previous comments by @Fowmy).

If this post solved your query, mark this post as a solution and give a thumbs up !!!

Hi @wenners68,

 

For a new table with duplicates, you can just duplicate the original table from Power Query Editor and apply the 'Keep Duplicates' step mentioned by @Fowmy on the duplicated/new table.

 

Thanks !

You can achieve this in Dax using SUMMARIZE

 

Go to the Data tab and select New table, 

NewTable = SUMMARIZE('TableName','TableName'[Customer],'TableName'[Item],'TableName'[Publication],'TableName'[Edition])

 note - ensure you change "'TableName'" to the name of the table that you want to reference. 

 

Karlos.

In Power Query, you can you the Keep Duplicates option to keep only the duplicated records if you mean that way.

Did you try what I suggested?

You perform the following 2 steps to get only duplicated rows with single line.

If you can show the expected output form your example, it will give clear understanding.
